- To raise public awareness about the effects of murder and manslaughter on families and friends.
- To take up the issues of concern arising out of the effects of murder and manslaughter.
- To promote and support research into the effects of murder and manslaughter on society.
SAMM has over 1020 members who have been bereaved through murder or manslaughter. The organisation produces an Information Sheet on SAMM's aims and activities as well as fact sheets on Coping with Anxiety and Fear, Coping with Haunting Memories and Nightmares, and Coping with Depression.
