About the Author
Samaritans was founded in 1953 by vicar Chad Varah, who wanted to offer a listening service to anyone who was struggling and contemplating suicide. The charity also works with schools, local communities, prisons and hospitals to provide emotional support to those who need it. They work closely with researchers and campaigners to continually raise awareness and improve mental health services.
