Young Ambassadors are a diverse group of people keen to support Samaritans by raising funds and increasing awareness. The group provides a base of experience and skills not available to the organisation through current channels.
Samaritans' vision:
| Fewer people die by suicide |
| People are able to explore their feelings |
| People are able to acknowledge and respect the feelings of others |
Samaritans' values:
| The importance of having the opportunity to explore difficult feelings |
| That being listened to, in confidence and accepted without prejudice, can alleviate despair and suicidal feelings |
| That everyone has the right to make fundamental decisions about their own life, including the decision to die by suicide |
