Our Work in Mid Cheshire

A really important part of Samaritans work is to reach out to people in the community and work with other organisations to raise awareness of what we do and offer support to as many people as we can. Every 90 minutes, someone in the UK or Ireland takes their own life and every 10 seconds, Samaritans responds to a call for help.

We have an outreach team who work with, for example, local schools. We love giving talks to anyone who invites us, so we can spread the word.

Volunteering in our Branch

Everyone in the Branch is a volunteer, from Annie our Director to our part time fundraisers. We have around 65 volunteers. Although Samaritans is best known for its listening volunteers who answer the telephones, there are so many other ways in which you can help us. We have roles in administration, fundraising, IT support and building maintenance for example. Contact Anne 420 on [email protected] if you have any questions, or scroll down to ‘Volunteer at this branch ’ find out more.

Raising Funds for our branch can be fun!

There are so many ways you can raise money for us! Our branch is autonomous and responsible for its own fundraising and management of its volunteers. The central charity just helps us out with policy.

Each year our branch receives over 22,000 calls for support. We need your support to help us to make sure we can be there for anyone who needs us.

There are many ways in which you can help us; no contribution is too small to make a big difference.
