How you can help us

By becoming a Samaritan volunteer

We are always recruiting new volunteers and we do provide full training. If you would like to know more, click on the volunteering link.

By supporting us financially

We are entirely self-funded and rely on the generosity of organisations and individuals to keep our service open. We have an on-line form for you to fill out and send with a cheque.  Please click here to make a donation to us or give us a call on 0131 221 9999 if you prefer to make your donation in cash or credit card. The Samaritan on duty will take your details and someone will call you to discuss. If you would like to know more about our work you are very welcome to come along to an information evening

You may be interested in joining our very active "Friends of the Samaritans" group who raise money for us by organising fund raising events. Click on the link to read more.

By helping us publicise our service

You may be able to display our posters, distribute leaflets, or publicise our work in other ways.

By inviting us to talk about our work.

We are always pleased to speak to schools, Universities, colleges or other groups who might be interested in our work. Call 0131 221 9999 and ask for the Outreach Coordinator to contact you or e-mail edinburgh@samaritans.org
