In the Community
Throughout the year we receive requests from various groups and organisations asking us to come along and talk about Samaritans.
An increasing number of these requests come from local schools who want to include our sessions in their course curricula.
This is a fantastic way for us to promote our work to the often "hard to reach" under-18 year olds who may at some point in their lives need someone to talk to - and some of whom may also, themselves, become Samaritans volunteers of the future!
In addition, on the UK website you can find much more information about Samaritans' work in schools nationally.
