Samaritans of Lancaster & District offer emotional support for people experiencing feelings of despair and suicide. We have been providing a service in your local community for over 40 years. We operate our listening service from our premises, 21 Sun Street, in the heart of Lancaster. This Branch answered over 30,500 contacts in 2013; this number includes telephone, face to face callers, email and Lancaster Farms Young Offenders contacts. We have over 120 volunteers who provide this 24 hour listening service at Sun Street and we recruit and train continually in order to keep our numbers consistent. Our branch runs with help of proceeds from our Charity Shop at Damside Street in Lancaster and from grant applications, legacies, charity of the year schemes and individual donations. We have a dedicated Awareness Raising and Speakers Team who are willing to come and give a talk or publicise Samaritans to your organisation, should you wish. We are also looking for safe sites to place our charity collecting boxes which we will service on a regular basis.
We are an independently run Saturday ethnic minority school. The school was founded by parents and continues to be run by parents of children attending the school. It has now been in existence for over 55 years holding lessons on Saturday mornings between the hours of 9 am through to 1 pm. The school takes boys and girls from nursery age (3,5) up to A level examination standard, with the school roll currently standing at around 450 pupils. The school was set up to fulfill two main functions. To help parents teach their children the Polish Language. To provide the children with knowledge about their roots. This is promoted through the teaching of history, geography of Poland along with Polish literature. We also try to ensure that the children are aware of Polish traditions and culture , as well as receiving spiritual and moral guidance. The School belongs to the parents and is run by a committee elected annually from amongst the parents of children attending the school. It is run on a charitable basis with all teaching services being provided by volunteers. These volunteers give up their Saturdays to help the children, receiving only a nominal honorarium for their time and effort. The school is financed entirely from the parents resources, the school receives no funding. The main source of income to cover running costs comes from fees the parents pay. The committee tries to keep the level of fees as low as possible taking into consideration that a lot of the families are recent emigres. The running costs & fees are finely balanced. The school is currently one of the largest Polish Saturday Schools. It is achieving high examination results in Polish language nationally. The Governing Body strives to improve operating procedures to cater for growing numbers of pupils by organizing fund raising activities throughout the year and looks for sponsors for specific purchases.
