We are always looking for volunteers to join us in both listening and support roles
How you can help
Our volunteers are ordinary people and come from many different walks of life. You don’t need to have been through a particular life experience or be an expert in anything particular to volunteer with us. Anyone who wants to help others, is tolerant and open-minded is welcome to apply. We have a diverse group of volunteers reflecting the community we serve and are keen for this to continue.
We recruit volunteers for both listening and support roles. To find out more and to apply to become a volunteer, please visit /support-us/volunteer/ You can also email [email protected]
As well as the satisfaction of knowing you’re helping people, you’ll learn valuable new skills with our comprehensive training, make new friendships, and be part of an amazing group of people.
“To find out that I could make a difference to someone by listening to them was great for me as I’ve always been a better listener than a speaker. To be part of a diverse, happy group of people who are committed to supporting our callers is something that I love”
Rosemary, Hillingdon Samaritans listening volunteer since 1973
