1-1 Peer Support

Sign up to be matched with one of our trained peer support volunteers. They’ll listen without judgement.

What can I expect from my first contact?

It can feel daunting to speak with a stranger about something so personal.

Our peer support volunteers are trained to help you feel as comfortable as possible.

You can share as little or as much as you like.

Everything you say is strictly confidential and is between yourself and your peer support volunteer. The only exception is if your volunteer has any concerns about your safety or wellbeing.

 

 

Ongoing support

The way you connect with your peer volunteer is up to you – you could email, call, text or video call.

You can speak as much or as little as you like. It may be that you have a specific challenge that you’d like support with or you may want ongoing emotional support.

Our peer support volunteers are here for you, to support you at your own pace.
