Expenditure
(total £27.9m)
This chart shows Samaritans’ expenditure in 2022/23. This year we spent almost 80 pence in every pound across four strategic priority areas: Access, Impact, Capacity, and Reach. Just over 20 pence in every pound was invested in fundraising, our strategic priority area of Sustainability, to help us raise enough income for next year and beyond.
