Lifeline Newcastle & Hunter Information

Lifeline Text is a trial service. To access the service, text 0477 13 11 14 (available between 5.00pm - 9.00pm (Adelaide time), 7 days a week). The purpose of the trial is to determine the feasibility of a national text-based crisis support service, including the extent to which such a service may improve the provision of mental health services to Australians. The service is being delivered by Lifeline's trained Crisis Supporters, providing the same compassionate, non-judgmental support as Lifeline's other services but delivered via text message.
