Victim Supportline

We know that people don't just need help during office hours. We also know that when you're feeling bad, the idea of having to deal with a stranger - even one that is there to help - can seem too much to cope with. And there may be times when you don't want to leave your home to get help.

The Victim Supportline lets you get information and emotional support anonymously and in confidence. Because it's just a phone call, you're in total control of what's happening - you can end the call at any time, and no one needs to know who you are, or where you're calling from, unless you want them to.

If you do want to talk, our trained volunteers are there to listen. If you want further help or information we can refer you on or point you in the right direction. And if you decide you want to get more direct help from Victim Support Surrey, or from the Surrey Witness Service, we can put you in touch with them too.

Opening hours:

• 9am - 9pm Mondays to Fridays
