Sligo Branch of Samaritans. Established 41 years ago. Current Volunteer base 100 plus. CLG since 2019. HSE grant covers approx 20% of running costs, balance from fundraising and donations. Working in conjunction with the other Samaritan branches throughout the country we provide listening services free of charge on 24/7 basis to people feeling suicidal or otherwise in distress. While the mission of Samaritans is that fewer people die by suicide we are available to callers dealing with any difficulties or challenges.
