Please find below a
statement from Samaritans offering our support to anyone affected
by the riots over the past few days.
"Following the rioting and
damage to property in London and across the rest of the UK, we
would like to remind people that our volunteers are available 24
hours a day to support anyone who has been affected by the very
upsetting events. We particularly want to reach out to residents
and business-owners whose properties and livelihoods have been
destroyed by the events over the past few days.
"Those distressed by what
has happened and who want to talk about how they are feeling can
telephone 08457 90 90 90, email jo@samaritans.org or find your
local branch at http://www.samaritans.org/"
Please note that as well as calling the
national telephone helpline number, people can also call any of our
200 branches directly.
