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.
