Horsham and Crawley

Thank you for visiting the website for the Samaritans of Horsham & Crawley. We have been located in Denne Road, Horsham since 1973 having previously been in Park Street.

The Samaritans service is available 24 hours a day to provide confidential emotional support for people who are experiencing feelings of distress or despair, including those which may lead to suicide.

There are 200 branches of Samaritans in the UK, all of which are self-funding and staffed entirely by volunteers. Every 10 seconds the Samaritans answer a call for help, totalling to nearly 9,000 calls a day. Those in need of our service are able to call for free on 116 123 from any phone. We also have an Outreach Programme where volunteers visit schools and various organisations.

Our five core values:

• Listening, alleviating distress and help people to reach a better understanding
• Confidentiality, if people feel safe they are more likely to open up about their feelings
• Non-judgemental, we want people to talk without fear of rejection or prejudice
• People making their own decisions, people have the right to find their own solutions
• Human contact, giving people the time, undivided attention and empathy to meet their emotional needs
