Samaritans - Covid 19 Help Plea · 25 May 2020

Our branch of Samaritans has been offering confidential emotional support for over 40 years. People who contact us are given the space and time to talk about their feelings and find ways to face their difficulties. Samaritans Vision is that fewer people will die by suicide.

Story

Samaritans' local branch/call centre covers Pendle/Burnley/Craven and Rossendale. By far the vast majority of our funding comes from our Bookstall in Colne market...since the lockdown income stopped overnight. Our unpaid volunteers man the phones 24/7 - day and night offering a listening ear to an ever growing number of emotionally vulnerable callers during these especially challenging times.
Although we are run by unpaid volunteers, we are in all other respects a business, with overheads, capital costs, from rent, utilties, marketing etc. Please help our office remain open. On behalf of our callers - Thank you.
