Suicide is the leading cause of death for Australians aged 15 – 44 with around 21,000 Australians affected by the death of someone to suicide every year. Lifeline is a national charity providing all Australians experiencing a personal crisis with access to 24-hour crisis support and suicide prevention services. These services include: • Telephone Crisis Line – 13 11 14 • Lifeline Text - 0477 13 11 14 • Lifeline Chat - www.lifeline.org.au/crisis-chat • Service Finder - free directory of local health and community services • DValert - Domestic Violence Response Training • Lifeline Centres nationwide provide specific services relevant to local communities. Our History Lifeline was founded in 1963 by the late Reverend Dr Sir Alan Walker, after he received a call by a distressed man, who three days later took his own life. Determined not to let loneliness, isolation or anxiety be the cause of other deaths, Sir Alan launched a crisis line, which operated out of the Methodist Central Mission in Sydney. Just a few days after it was first established Lifeline received over one hundred calls for help. Today, somewhere in Australia there is a new call to Lifeline’s 24 hour crisis line 13 11 14 every minute. As a charity we rely on the support of the community to support our life saving work.
