One of the supporters of the suicide prevention charity Samaritans’ annual Awareness Day, also known as the 24/7 Samaritans Awareness Day held yesterday, Friday 24th July, was GBR Anglia. Samaritans has 19,000 listening volunteers throughout the UK and Ireland, and used its Awareness Day to promote its service, which is available around the clock. Earlier this year, c2c supported a Kick4Kindness football tournament, which raised £ 5,000 for local mental health charities, including Basildon & Thurrock and Southend Samaritans. Yesterday’s Awareness Day was also supported by East Midlands Railway. Other initiatives that Samaritans holds in partnership with the railways are its annual ‘Brew Monday’.
