Telephone Counselling

To access 24/7 confidential telephone counselling, you can call the helpline directly on 03303 800658 at any time and you don’t need to register for an online account before doing this.  You can use this service as many or as few times as you like, there is no limit on the support you can receive. The service is completely confidential, and nobody at the University will know that you have accessed this support.
