Support for Survivors of Suicide

Support for Survivors of Suicide delivers short-term counselling that is free of charge to people aged 16+ who are residents of Lewes, Newhaven, Eastbourne and Hailsham. We are currently offering sessions via phone and video call.

We are a BACP Accredited service working in partnership with Counselling Plus who provide the same counselling service for residents of Bexhill, Hastings and Rye.

There are times when we can cope with life’s challenges but all of us need support at times. There are situations, thoughts, and feelings that no one should have to face alone. It may feel as though nothing can change your situation but people who are struggling with suicidal thoughts have found that even at their lowest point there are things that can help. Talking to someone who is really listening and who wants to understand you and what you are going through can be an important first step.

Please bear in mind that Support for Survivors of Suicide is not an emergency service and our counsellors cannot be available outside of appointment times. For more information, please call 01273 519108 or email counselling@sussexcommunity.org.uk
