Volunteers Needed!


Kirkcaldy Samaritans relies entirely on unpaid volunteers to carry out its role. Currently there are 48 such volunteers in Kirkcaldy Branch, who give of their time on a regular, weekly basis.

In return, we offer you excellent listening skill training that will stand you, personally, in good stead as well as enabling you to contribute to our vital service.

Although we are a part-time branch, we are very much a part of a vital chain of Samaritans Centres which are manned, nationally, 24 hours per day by volunteers whose primary aim is to offer emotional support to those experiencing feelings of despair and distress, including those that might lead to suicide.

These same volunteers often undertake many other roles within the Branch. These include outreach activities in schools, hospitals and prisons and several kinds of administrative roles that help the branch run smoothly.

With increasing numbers of contacts being made with Samaritans, particularly including those via e-mail, we always need to recruit new volunteers. If you are thinking about the possibility of becoming a trained Samaritan volunteer, or would simply like to know more, then please explore the world of Samaritan volunteering using the links on the left.
