Samaritans of Tyneside are proud to offer emotional support to people in our community and beyond
At this challenging time, we are continuing to offer support to those in need.
Our team of dedicated volunteers provide confidential and non-judgemental support to those in need of emotional support, and those experiencing feelings of distress or despair.
Our volunteers keep our branch phones answered, emails replied to and visitors seen, as well as fundraising to keep the branch running.
Our Service During Lockdown
Unfortunately, we are unable to see face to face callers at our branch right now, but our volunteers are still going in every day to answer the telephone and reply to e-mails.
We know that the current unprecedented global situation has been particularly challenging. If you are struggling and need someone to talk to, please call 116 123 (free number) or e-mail [email protected]
