Local support, supporting locals
Since 1968, Lifeline Northern Beaches has worked to prevent suicide and support mental health in our own backyard.
This year we celebrated a milestone 55 years of impact in our community, including 30 years providing companionship to aged care residents.
To date we have answered over 1,000,000 crisis calls, and helped reduce drivers of distress via thousands of counselling sessions.
Lifeline Northern Beaches funds all our community programs through partnerships, grants, retail, donations and fundraising efforts.
