TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 The trustees present their report and financial statements together with the independent examiner's report for the year ended 31 March 2025. OBJECTIVES AND ACTivrriES The purposes of the charity are: to enable persons in Dunfermline and the surrounding area, as well as dsewhere. who are experiencing feelings of distress or despair. induding those who may be at risk of suicide, to receive confidential emotional support to improve their emotional health and to reduce the Inciden of suicide; to promote a better understanding in society of SUiGide, suicidal behaviour and the value of expressing feelings which may otherwise lead to SUlGide or impaired emotional health" and to collaborate with and support the Samaritans Central Charity and its affiliated branches in fulfilling these objectives. Samaritans, vision is that fewer people die by suicide. We work to achieve this by making it our mission to alleviate emotional distress and reduce the inciilence of suicidal feelings and suicidal behaviour. ACHIEVEMEKfs AND PERFORMANCE Oryanlsatlonalstruclura The Board, which is responsible for the management of the tharity, nomi8lly meets around four times per year. Day-t(xlay management of the Branch is delegated to the Branch Leadership Team ('BLf). The BLT normally meets bi-monthly. Volunteers Our Branch is wn entirely by vdunteers. Without them. our Branch would not exist. As of the end of March 2025 there were 51 vofunteers (up from 47 at the end of March 2024) with a further 6 probationers undergoing training; comprising 48 who are primarily listening volunteers providing frontline support lo callers and 3 who are support volunteers. The reality is that many of our volunteers, whether they be listening or support volunteers, carry ¢)ut additional roles in: management and leadership of the Branch. govemance. finance and compliance,. supparting volunteers; building maintenance. property management and housekeeping" health and safety. marketing and publicity; outreach activities in the local community; fundraising" and r8cruitment, selection, training and Mentoring of new Samaritans. This year also saw volunteers successfully carry out t0 critical, resource heavy back-offI activities. In quarter 3 we successfully transitioned over from using landlines to answer calls from those in need of our service to a new Samaritans wide intemet based listening ¢8ntre, This implementation provided both callers and listening vdunteers with several Servi improvements, induding better call quality. Then in quarter 4 v had to ensure all volunteers complled with new criminal record check requirements. This generated significant
TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 engagement with Disclosure Scotland. This additional safeguarding measure was successfully Gompleled by the deadline of 31 March. Llstening servic• The SamaTitans 116 123 telephone helpline is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and fomis the principal means through which the charity engages with and supports those needing our help. Our Branch activdy supported the helpline. Our Branch is open for volunteers 5 days each week and during that time offers some 52 hours of available shifts. This year our Branch handled just short of 8500 calls for help, with our volunteers providing ovar 2000 hours of emotional support responding to those calls. Outr& - In par¥on Our Outreach activities continued to grow again this year and are now back at pre-covid levels of engagement, providing direct emotional support and raising awareness of Samaritans in the local community. Amongst the many activities that we were involved in, we: provided emotional support and awareness to staff and students at Frfe College, during ljoth Freshers Week and as part of the College's Recharge Festival; promoted and supported IoGally, through an information stall at Inverkeithing Rallway Station, the national charlty's Small Talk Saves Lives campaign; played an active part in the Fife Health and SoGial Care Partnership mental health awareness week wlth presence at three local community centres; and responded to many other requests from dubs, org8nisations (such as Queen Margaret Hospital) and public, prfvate and communlty bodies (Induding the Dunfermline Children's Gala) for stands presentations and advice. We have been 8uccessful in encouraglng more of our volunteers to complete outreach training. Additionally, several volunt88rs have slgned up for an advancèd outreach training programme that will provide a foundation for deliverlng face to face support; these sessions take place during Summer 2025. Ou¢fv•Gh- •waren•ss rnlslnB In addition to factrlfrface outreach, vrfe continued to deliver tsrgeted awareness of our seplices through focused local advertising. A key component of this is our ongoing relationship with Dunfermline Athletic Football Club. As well as investing In pitch side advertising for the 2024-25 season we arranged an Awareness Day at the teams home SPFL Championship game on Saturday 28th September to promote Samarftans. We promoted, along wth Kirkcaldy BTanch, a campaign on Kingdom FM (which then became Orlglnal 106 (Fife)) radio in the two-week run up to Christmas, reminding people that Samaritans are there to listen, if they are feeling overwhelmed with the financial and emotional pressures that Christmas can sometim8s bring. W8 promoted several Samaritan and other &qmpaigns through our channel on X and our website. such as Samaritans Awaraness Day. and we ran adverts and artides in the Dunfennline Press and Fife Central Times. We post weekly on X to our circa 850 followers. Prfson Our prison team continues to support the Samaritans, prisoner listening scheme in Glenochil Prison. We do this in conjunction with volunteers from Kirkcaldy Branch. Our prison activities have been running successfully for several years. Recrultment and tralnlnq Our CnjItrnent and training teams had a busy and productive year. Ensuring we can provide sufficient well- trained volunteers to provide our Servi is critical and Is an ongoing challenge. During the year. we ran two recruitment drives using local print and social media to raise awareness. Overall. we had 38 expressions of interest in becoming a listening volunteer. Information evenings and inter4iews were held, after which 16 new volunteers progressed, in two tranches, to train as new listening vdunteers.
TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 The training team held a training day in Oclober to farAlitale Ihe re-introduction of peer-tpeer mentoring within the Branch, fL41owing lCh several peer mentors were traine(l. The aim is for all listening vdunteers lo be peer mentored by the end of 2025 and thereafter on a r(Aling annu81 basis. The training team is also reswsible for ensuring volunleers meet mandatory training requirements. A new mandatory Equity, Diversity and Indusion module was rdled out in January for vdunteers to complete by end June 2025.
