Story
On July 7th a group of us from the Leeds office: Anastasija Clayton, Amy Brooks, Ewan Cochrane, Hannah Watson, Jean Woolford, Mark Harrington, Matt Lewer, and Sheena Zwicky-Ross will be running the Leeds 10k to raise money for the Samaritans. We are all excited to be raising funds for such a brilliant charity, and we are enjoying training so far!
The Samaritans
Every six seconds, the Samaritans respond to a call for help.
Every year, they answer more than 5 million calls for help by phone, email, SMS, letter, face to face at one of their local branches and through their Welsh language service.
They're there 24/7, before, during and after a crisis.
Whether it’s an ‘are you ok?’ at just the right moment, or the midnight support of a trained volunteer; whether it's better training in the workplace or campaigning for more investment in national and local suicide prevention – they're there.
Every life lost to suicide is a tragedy, and Samaritans’ vision is that fewer people die by suicide.
