"It’s not that one phone call magically fixed everything - the problems were still there - but it was a turning point. And since then, I’ve been able to build the sort of life that would have seemed impossible to me."

If you fundraise for Central London Samaritans, make sure to ask your employer if they run a matching gift programme. Employers are often happy to double or triple match their employees' donation.
By fundraising for our branch, you will help us make sure we're there to listen to anyone who's unable to cope right now. Tell us about your fundraising plans by getting in touch with our team.
