Need Immediate Help?
The Moving On Project is not a crisis service — we are unable to offer immediate help. If you're in crisis and need to talk right now, there are many helplines staffed by trained people ready to listen. These organisations can help you with immediate crisis support.
If you are a young person needing emergency help, are feeling suicidal, or are seriously concerned about someone else, please dial 999.
