Keeping a lifeline ALIVE.

This is an essential service, we can't afford having it closing.

Save Our Services - Without Your Support They Will Close in 2020 resources

For over 30 years, we’ve offered this support to thousands of women and girls in the depths of despair, but now we need to ask for help ourselves. Despite our best efforts, we are struggling to secure funding to carry on running our services after the end of January 2020. Now we need your help to save our services and carry on giving lifesaving help to women and girls who use self-harm.
