Story

Every 10 seconds, Samaritans responds to a call for help.

Samaritans are 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.

They give people ways to cope and the skills to be there for others. And we encourage, promote and celebrate those moments of connection between people that can save lives.

They offer listening and support to people and communities in times of need.

In prisons, schools, hospitals and on the rail network, Samaritans are working with people who are going through a difficult time and training others to do the same.

Every life lost to suicide is a tragedy, and Samaritans’ vision is that fewer people die by suicide.

That’s why they work tirelessly to reach more people and make suicide prevention a priority.

During 2021, around 22,000 people volunteered their time for Samaritans.

- Almost 20,000 trained listening volunteers responded to calls for help.

- Around 2,500 volunteers supported the running of more than 200 branches and locations across the UK and Ireland.

- Over 1,300 people in prison volunteered as trained Listeners.
