Every ten seconds, Samaritans answer a call for help. We’re here, day or night, for anyone who’s struggling to cope, who needs someone to listen without judgement or pressure. Samaritans is not only for the moment of crisis, we’re taking action to prevent the crisis. We give people ways to cope and the skills to be there for others. Every life lost to suicide is a tragedy, and Samaritans’ vision is that fewer people die by suicide. That’s why we work tirelessly to reach more people and make suicide prevention a priority.

This year, Dawn Walk will be in celebration of World Mental Health Day, in solidarity with those struggling to cope.

Participants are challenged to walk 5K at sunrise, wherever they choose. This could be somewhere special to you, or your everyday route – it's up to you! Take on the challenge on your own or as a team, all whilst raising vital funds and awareness of Samaritans so we can be there for people when they need us most.

Whether you’ve used our service before, are fundraising in memory of someone special or want to help us help others, we’d love for you to join us in our life-saving mission.

Registrations will open from Monday 15 July 2024.
