The Listening Place

The Listening Place (TLP) provides those who feel life is no longer worth living with a safe place to come and talk freely and confidentially to warm, non-judgemental volunteers who are willing to engage with their feelings and support them through their darkest times. TLP provides an appointment service for sustained face-to-face support. Referrals from people having suicidal thoughts can be made via our website.
