Where your money goes

For every £1 raised, 80p goes on our services and just 20p is invested in raising the next £1.

Why we need your support

We’re answering over 400 calls a day from people consumed by money worries.

Almost 1 in 10 first-time callers are worried about money.

Record numbers of people calling us for the first time are worried about their finances.

Being able to share your fears and be listened to is so powerful. I know that volunteering with Samaritans makes a huge difference to people, because you can walk alongside someone on their own path and be there with them, whatever they are going through.
