Things on your mind?

Support Samaritans

I desperately needed to talk to someone to support me through a very difficult period in my life. I don't think I would be here now if it wasn't for you."

Samaritans caller

Samaritans currently receives less than 2% of income from Government and Statutory sources.  The majority of our funding comes from individuals, trusts and companies, without whom we would not be able to carry on providing an emotional support and emotional health promotion service.

If you are able, please donate to us today.

"Listening to someone who is perhaps depressed, worried, frightened and / or suicidal and who doesn't know where to turn to, is perhaps the most valuable thing we can do for a fellow human being."
