600 reasons to be proud 💚

In 2025, more than 600 people across Northern Ireland chose to show up for others by giving their time to Samaritans, so that no one in our communities has to face their hardest moments alone.

If you’re struggling call us on 116 123.

Meet Ellen, a volunteer at our Newry and Dundalk branch since 2016.

“Being a volunteer gives me a sense of fulfilment. It is a privilege when a caller feels able to connect with me and share their thoughts and feelings.

Ellen, thank you for being there for others. 💚

This Volunteers' Week, our Regional Director Marcella Taylor has a message for our incredible volunteers across Northern Ireland.
