Samaritans

With the cutbacks the goverment is making charities are going to be hit aswell, and with people tightening their belts they are getting less and less money.

They managed to find £6,000,00 for the Philippines.
Why not a charity who saves lives every day?

also what i have done in the past is look up the local branches phone number and called it and that way it is free if included in your phone price plan or cost of a local call. i called many times and on the phone for an hour at a time really can build up your bills. i pass my local branch everyday as i walk into work and i always think how amazing their volunteers are. there is a sign up outside their office saying they always try to be open to drop in from 8am.

I am just happy that we have them.
I just find i weird that we can always find money to kill people, Like in wars. But can't find any to save them.

Its a little known fact but there is a free phone number and I have it. I don't want to post it on here openly as I don't think Samaritans can afford for the whole world to know about it but if you message me I will tell you it...

but what is the point of having a free number if they don't want people to use it?

[Angie]

Because they will be short of money to fund it so want it used as little as possible

I have found the freephone number easily on the net. NSPCC and Missing persons have freephone numbers too. It isn't a secret.

So sad, but so true.

It's not weird, it's the evil thing that everyone just accepts: Capitalism. & it es me off. Money to be made killing. No money to be made saving lives.
