Teneo are proud to be supporting Samaritans until 2026 to help support more people who are struggling to cope.
Following a staff vote, our three-year partnership began in 2023 and combines a range of fundraising activities, volunteering and pro bono support. The partnership aims to help ensure Samaritans’ vital service can continue to be there 24/7, as well as enhancing the firm's mental health and wellbeing activities.
"As a professional services/people business, mental health is of the utmost importance to Teneo and our team. Our partnership with Samaritans has given us a new perspective on challenges we face here and the levers we can pull to help improve the mental health of our team, while also supporting a cause that means a lot to our staff.”
Joseph Faddoul, Senior Vice President at Teneo
Teneo colleagues have taken part in some fantastic fundraising challenges so far, to raise over £50,000 and counting for Samaritans! These events have included a South Coast Walk, quiz night, Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge, and several colleagues running in the London Marathon, Saucony 10k and Royal Parks Half Marathon in 2024.
Further fundraising events and volunteering opportunities are planned throughout the partnership, including more running events, a Peak District walking challenge and pro bono projects to raise further funds and awareness for Samaritans.

"We are so grateful to Teneo for supporting Samaritans. As we continue to live through uncertain times, Samaritans’ volunteers continue to be there to listen to anyone who is struggling to cope. Our vital services are in demand more than ever and Teneo’s generous support will help us fund thousands of potentially life-saving calls for help!”
Sarah Scott, Corporate Account Manager at Samaritans
