Self Injury Support
"Improving support and knowledge around self-injury"
We support women & girls affected by self-injury, trauma and abuse. Self-injury is often experienced alongside feelings of shame or self-blame. Responses from others who do not understand self–injury can reinforce these feelings. We aim to offer and model acceptance which increases chance of people feeling more accepting towards themselves.
"I couldn’t have got through without the helpline, it means the world to me to have someone listen and believe me…."
