Why has the number of people wanting to volunteer going down?, the Aberystwyth branch of the Samaritans is 50% down on listening volunteers,yet the rate of calls from people in distress is running at 13,000 a year at our branch.
In case no-one knows where Aberystwyth is it's on the mid-west coast of Wales.
If there is anyone out there living within distance of a Samaritan branch, the phone number is in the phone directory. For more information go to the ABERYSTWYTH WEB_PAGE:- http://hometown.aol.com/gwionjones/myhomepage/club.html

Be happy and help others

I was once a Samaritan, about 10 years ago. Did it for six months then had to leave cause I could not handle the pressure! Don't know how you guys do it, but thank god you do!
