The Suicide Call Back Service is a free, nationwide telephone service that offers short to medium term support for people at risk of suicide, their carers, and those bereaved by suicide.

The Suicide Call Back Service supports callers through a series of six 50-minute telephone counselling sessions, scheduled to suit you.

Professional counsellors, with specialist skills in working with suicide-related issues, will assist you in working through difficult emotions. The service provides support for people over the age of 18, although parents of youth at risk are encouraged to call for support.

How do I find out more?
