Sunderland Counselling Service response to ongoing violence and riots
As a charity born out of the local community in Sunderland more than 40 years ago, we are proud to support our diverse range of clients and the kind and compassionate people who make Sunderland the city it is.
We know people’s mental health and wellbeing is impacted by fear and hate and we are keen to reassure and help where we can. We will continue to work hard to deliver our services in a way that meets your needs, regardless of your background, race, religion, sexuality, gender, language or any disability. Should anybody have concerns about accessing our service, please contact us on 0191 514 7007 and ask to speak with a member of our clinical or operational management team.
We welcome all of Sunderland’s residents into our services and know together we are stronger.
