Samaritans are available 24 hours a day.
Common reasons to call Samaritans are:
Our volunteers provide emotional support to people in distress on the phone, face to face, by email and by letter.
We believe that being listened to in confidence, without fear of being judged, can be a huge relief and is often the first step in finding a way to cope. Being a Sam lets us do this.
Our volunteers don’t offer advice, because what works for one person might not work for you. But we do believe that given the time and space to work through problems or difficulties in confidence, everyone can find an inner strength that lets them find their own way forward.
If you need to email us for emotional support or an empathetic ear - jo@samaritans.org
Wakefield Samaritans have produced a celebrity cook book to raise funds. The book includes exciting recipes from celebrities including Jane McDonald, Sharon Small, Katherine Kelly, Yvette Cooper and many more, lots interesting articles and useful information.
All monies raised will go to Wakefield Samaritans to enable us to keep our branch open to support those in crisis, despair or who have suicidal thoughts.
You can purchase the cook book at our regular coffee mornings which are held on the 2nd Saturday of each month at the Centre, or at Wakefield Tourist Information Centre for a bargain price of £4.99 . If you prefer to order by mail order please send a cheque or postal order for £7.09 (for one copy inc postage and packing) to:
