Samaritans' Media Guidelines
Samaritans' Media Guidelines help journalists report suicide and self-harm safely and responsibly.

Our Royal Patron, Ambassadors and Supporters
We're proud to have passionate well-known people supporting our cause and maximising our awareness and fundraising potential.

Equity, Diversity and Inclusion
To genuinely address the causes of suicide and self-harm, we must take more practical action to challenge discrimination and injustice, working hand in hand with people affected by both.

Lived Experience at Samaritans
At Samaritans, we know the importance of listening, so we’re creating more opportunities for people with personal experience of using our services, and of suicide and self-harm, including those bereaved, to share their views and experiences with us.
