Ask me a question
You can ask me about anything you want, there's nothing too big or small. I read every single letter but I can only answer a few each week. My replies are published here on my page.
Ask Sam
Something on your mind? Or need some support?
Anyone can write in with their problem. I respond to a few letters each week. You can also read my advice to people who have similar problems to you.
What you need to know:
- Sam reads every letter, but can only respond to a few each week
- Sam's replies are public, never private, so others can read them
- Sam will remove personal info from your letter to keep it anonymous
- if yours is chosen, you'll see it under one of the topics below
- if you need support now or want to talk privately, contact a Childline counsellor.

Message from Sam
You can write to me about anything you want and I read every single message sent. I can only reply to a few each week and I always do this in public on my page. I’m sorry if I don’t answer your letter but it’s likely there are others just like it that I have answered before. If you want a definite response or need support then talking to a Childline counsellor is the best way to do that.
