Samaritans are the only confidential support service that is available for everyone, everywhere, day and night, all year through.

Samaritans have a vision for a society where fewer people die by suicide.

Our mission is to be available 24 hours a day to provide confidential emotional support for people who are experiencing feelings of distress or despair, including those which may lead to suicide.

Samaritans believe that by being there for each other people gain strength, strength to find a way through emotional distress. In short, people are stronger together.
