For Sam, volunteering is rooted in human connection.
Through her years of volunteering with Samaritans, the Youth Offending Service, and NSPCC/Childline, Sam has supported people during some of their most vulnerable moments - offering a listening ear, helping young people make safer choices, and ensuring children feel heard and protected.
Her motto is: “Together everyone achieves more, there is no ‘I’ in team.”
Volunteering has given Sam confidence, purpose and a deeper understanding of people. For her, the reward comes from knowing she has made a difference and being part of a team that cares.
This Volunteers’ Week, we’re celebrating volunteers like Sam, whose compassion and commitment help make our communities stronger.
