When calling Samaritans we are open 24/7 and aim for everyone to get through to someone straight away but sometimes that’s not always possible as it depends on the numbers of volunteers we have on the phones at that time. If you do have to wait for someone to answer, it is generally not more than a few minutes. When you email us at [email protected] we aim to respond within 24 hours. Our Dublin branch is open from 10am-10pm everyday and while it can be helpful to call ahead and arrange a time to come in, appointments are not required. If you write us a letter and provide a return address, we aim to respond within 7 days.
