Samaritans relies heavily on public donations to maintain the service.
It cost about £15,000 to provide the Samaritans service in Havering last year and public help is essential in providing us with the necessary financial support. All our funding comes from Donations, Fundraising Events and Legacies. All our fundraising is done by our volunteers, and unlike many other charities we get neither government nor local authority funding, nor also do we have paid fundraisers - it is the same volunteers who already make such a huge commitment in manning the phones who also perform all the fundraising and running of the branch.
Donations
If you can help us with a donation it would be gratefully appreciated by our volunteers and ultimately our callers. Funds will go to help with our running costs, our phones, and our outreach and awareness costs. To donate to Samaritans of Havering, you can write a cheque and make it payable to the following:
