Samaritans of Waltham Forest

#Easter is coming, and it's a time of fun and relaxation for many. But such times can be tough if you feel you don't belong or can't enjoy anything others do. 💚 Whatever you're struggling with, we are here to listen. Call us free on 📞116 123, at any time, day or night.

#Easter is a great time to catch up with a friend or family member and ask how they really are, perhaps during a walk or over a coffee. 💚 Top listening tip: don't offer advice - just hear how they're feeling, ask follow-up questions and reflect back what they're saying.

Brilliant to have @listeningwalker visiting our branch as part of his epic fundraising tour of the country, covering over 6,000 miles in total and visiting all 200 Samaritans branches. Thank you, David - you're an inspiration! 💚

@listeningwalker @NLSamaritans @HASamaritans Apologies, David - don't know how we got that wrong! 💚

Two more branches today! First was our @SamaritansWF branch on Waltham Forest where Martin and Ray gave me a fab welcome! Later I visited @NLSamaritans in Enfield. That’s 102 branches so far….. Next is @HASamaritans in Harrow

@listeningwalker @NLSamaritans @HASamaritans Great to have you at our branch, Matthew - thank you for including us in your epic tour!

Wishing all our Muslim friends, followers and volunteers a very Happy Eid! 🌙 #EidMubarak 💚

A simple conversation could help save someone’s life. If you spot someone who doesn’t look OK. Small, soft questions can be a gentle way in - they interrupt the cycle of thoughts and help someone shift a little inside and engage with the world outside of their thoughts

#MothersDay may be be a happy time for some. But it can also be painful: if you've lost your mum. Or you don't get on with her. Or you wanted to have children and never could. 💚 Whatever you're struggling with, we are here to listen. Call us free on 📞116 123.
