Call Samaritans free 24/7 on 0800 726 666 or email our branch at [email protected] to volunteer. Samaritans' mission is to provide confidential emotional support for people who are experiencing feelings of distress or despair, including those which may lead to su***de. A totally confidential, anonymous conversation with a stranger can often feel easier than talking to someone you know. So
metimes you can’t talk to family or friends about what’s weighing on your mind. Our trained volunteers come from all walks of life, but they are all Samaritans because they are people who genuinely care. You don't have to be suicidal to contact us. Some of the common reasons to call Samaritans include:
Relationship and Family Problems. Loss, including loss of job, or friend or family member through bereavement. Financial worries. Job stress or overwork. College or study related stress. Body Image issues. Don't feel alone, our dedicated volunteers are there to help, and it’s amazing the difference having someone who listens and cares can make. The New Zealand Samaritans is a confidential listening and support telephone service operating 24 hours a day. General Information
