In memory of Carol Brown

Story

Carol Brown passed away peacefully on 15th October. She was full of love and kindness for those around her, whoever they were. 

Carol volunteered with Samaritans for over 30 years, including three years where she was the Director of the Barnstaple branch. 

Samaritans is there for anyone struggling to cope – day or night, 365 days a year. They take action to prevent people reaching crisis point, helping people find ways to cope and learn the skills to be there for others. They campaign to make suicide prevention a priority.

The North Devon and North Cornwall Samaritans support over 15,000 people annually. The support they provide is vital and we want them to continue to be able to help them be there when it matters. 

Thank you so much for your contribution.
