FOR HEALTH AND SAFETY REASONS, DUE TO COVID-19 WE ARE NOT OFFERING FACE-TO-FACE CONTACT UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

Watch this short video on how samaritans works around the clock to help those in need at their most vulnerable times.

Samaritans provide confidential, non-judgemental support 24 hours a day for people who are experiencing feelings of distress or despair, including those which could lead to suicide.

We're always in need of donations to support the work we do. You can donate here or by the 'Donate' link below.
