Central London Samaritans is the founding branch of Samaritans. We opened in 1953 at St Stephen Walbrook and have listened every hour of every day since. We are an independent charity (no. 1171330) based at 13 Salisbury Place, Marylebone, and part of the national Samaritans network. Our 400 trained volunteers give confidential, non-judgemental emotional support to anyone who is struggling to cope, for whatever reason. We answer over 50,000 calls for help a year by phone and online, one every ten minutes, and our drop-in at Salisbury Place is open 9am to 9pm, seven days a week, with no appointment or referral needed. We also take listening to the people at highest risk of suicide: homeless people at outreach sessions, prisoners at HMP Brixton and HMP/YOI Isis, people in police custody, ambulance call handlers, and, through Facing the Future, people bereaved by suicide. This year we are also out at universities, including the University of Westminster. Every £1 donated to us unlocks almost £5 of volunteer-delivered support, and 86p in every £1 we spend goes directly on our charitable services (year ended 31 March 2025, audited). Anyone can call Samaritans free, any time, on 116 123. The number will not show on a phone bill.
