Finding things hard this time of year? You're not alone.
If you're struggling to cope this festive season
With the extra pressure that the festive season can bring, our worries and fears may seem worse this time of year. It's important you check in on yourself and look after your wellbeing. Here are some small tips to help you cope over the festive period. And remember, Samaritans volunteers are here for you whenever you need us, every day of the year.
Every hour. Every day. Every life.
Samaritans is the charity that prevents suicide through the power of human connection. Connecting people in crisis with trained volunteers who will always listen. People calling for change with those who need to listen. People who've been there before with those struggling now.
Talk to someone
Suicidal thoughts can be complex, frightening and confusing. If you need someone to talk to, we listen. We won't judge or tell you what to do. We’re not afraid of going into difficult areas with you. Contact a Samaritan today.
What we do
We make sure there’s always someone to listen if you’re in crisis or feeling suicidal. And we unite to raise awareness of people’s experiences, create partnerships and campaign for suicide prevention. Join us.
