Lewisham, Greenwich and Southwark

Update March 2020

• Due to current events we are currently stopping our outreach, recruitment and selection events and not taking face-to-face callers. We continue to prioritise responding to calls. Thank you to everyone for your continued support.

How we help

• Providing emotional support on the phone and by email for anyone who is struggling to cope including those who have thoughts of suicide.
• Being available to over 900,000 people in our three London boroughs of Lewisham, Southwark and Greenwich.
• Reaching out to high risk groups and communities to reduce the risk of suicide through work with St Mungo’s and the 999 Club.
• Working in partnership with organisations, agencies and experts such as Oxleas and South London and Maudsley A&E Mental Health Team Partnerships.
