Support & crisis lines

Our Crisis line is free to call from landlines and UK mobile providers. Most first time callers call this line.

Anyone can call any of our numbers, but usually friends, relatives and people who have called before use this line.

Our Support and Crisis lines are open Monday to Friday 18:30 to 21:30.

Here on the line, we are all fully trained and more than willing to support you in any and every way that we can. What we’re best at is listening - and though you may require advice relevant to your situation, we will never tell you what to do.

Anyone affected by sexual violence or coercion can call us regardless of whether your experience is recent, ongoing, or historical. We accept calls from people of any gender, age, religion, race or sexual orientation.

If you’re a family member, friend or partner of a survivor, you can call too. If you have any questions or would like to talk, give us a call.

You do not have to speak about anything you don’t want to. When we answer the phone, we will tell you our name and we’ll probably ask for yours too. This is only so we know what to call you during the conversation and we really don’t mind if you give us a fake one!

You don’t have to give us a name or any details about yourself, or reveal anything you don't want us to know.
