Urgent Support

Counselling for Social Change is unable to offer emergency support. However there are other places to turn to in an emergency.

NHS:

If you or someone else is in danger, call 999 or go to A&E now
If you need urgent help for your mental health, call 111
During the daytime, you could also contact your GP/Surgery for advice. There is more information here:
