Lifeline Australia is a non-profit organisation that provides free 24-hour crisis support and suicide prevention services to people in Australia. The organisation was founded in 1963, and today it operates a network of 40 centres across the country, staffed by trained volunteers who provide support and counselling services to people in need.
Lifeline Australia offers several services to people in crisis, including phone, online chat and text-based support. The organisation’s helpline, 13 11 14, is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and can be accessed by anyone in Australia who needs support or assistance. Lifeline also offers a range of other support services, including suicide prevention training, community education programs, and support groups for people who have been impacted by suicide.
Lifeline Australia’s services are confidential and are provided by trained counsellors who are experienced in dealing with a range of crises, including mental health issues, relationship problems, addiction, and suicide. The organisation’s goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment for people in need and to help them develop the skills and resources they need to cope with life’s challenges.
