Life can be wonderful. Life can be tough. 1 in 4 of us have had suicidal thoughts.

Samaritans is the charity that prevents suicide through the power of human connection. We connect people in crisis with trained volunteers who will always listen.

We unite to raise awareness of people’s experiences, create partnerships and campaign for suicide prevention. Together, we make suicide prevention a priority and reach people before it’s too late. In every community, including yours.

By taking on Samarathon and fundraising for Samaritans, you’ll help us continue being there for people who need someone to listen.

Every hour. Every day. Every life.
