The Sussex Mental Healthline is staffed by a team of experienced operators, mental health staff and people with lived experience. Although we are not a counselling service, all our operators will listen and help callers to talk through their immediate challenges and to explore ways of coping or suggest alternative help available.

Our call operators can offer general advice regarding managing mental health difficulties and suggest tools and coping strategies.

We can give information about a range of services available that can support you and how to access them as well as details of a wide range of charitable and voluntary organisations, both local and national.
