On Saturday 16th October 2021, David Matthews who is walking over 6000 miles to visit all 201 Samaritans branches in the British Isles, visited the Boston Branch of Samaritans.
Covering the Boston, Spalding and Skegness areas, the Samaritans of Boston have been in the town centre for nearly 50 years.
Walking from the Kings Lynn branch, David was met by 3 Boston Samaritans Volunteers, Cheryl, Florian and Mark, at the Co-op store in Kirton to walk the 5 miles to the branch at the Len Medlock Voluntary Centre.
