About us

Whatever you’re facing, a Samaritan will face it with you.

Today, our unique 24-hour listening service will answer around 10,000 calls for help. We are there for anyone who’s struggling to cope, who needs someone to listen without judgement or pressure.

We need donations to help fund our lifesaving work. Thank you for your kind support 💚

How does Work For Good work?

Whenever someone wants to fundraise for us through sales, we need to have a legal agreement in place. Work for Good takes care of this for us.

Click 'Fundraise for us' and register. You'll need to fill in a form detailing how much you'd like to raise and when you'd like to donate by. Don't worry about getting the form 100% accurate at this stage, as you can always tweak it later on.
