Volunteer

So many people have it in them to be a Samaritans volunteer.

To touch another person’s life when it really matters, by helping them directly, or by keeping our branches running, is a rare gift.

Death from disadvantage

Disadvantaged people are losing their lives in Britain because of the link between levels of deprivation and suicidal behaviour.

When John experienced a breakdown & lost contact with those closest to him, he called Samaritans.

Hear what he went through, in a poem he wrote about his experience.

Buses around Britain carry Samaritans' message that no matter what you’re going through we're here and ‘We Listen’.
