"Improving support and knowledge around self-harm."
Who We Help, Why We Help & the Difference It Makes
We are the UK's leading self-harm support charity. We sift out the stigma around self-harm and offer compassionate, evidence-based services.
For 40 years we’ve been at the forefront of non-judgemental, trauma-informed self-harm support, shaped by people who’ve been there. We’re willing to talk about the things that others aren’t, and meet people where they are.
Our Vision
Is a world where anyone who self-harms can access support and care without judgement.
Our Mission
To improve support and knowledge around self-harm by providing trauma-informed, compassionate support to people who self-harm and those who care for them.
