SpaceWellbeing — 2024-08-30 09:07:54 UTC

CALL Helpline is the all Wales mental health helpline.
It provides emotional support to anyone living in wales.
The helpline operators provide a listening ear to anyone wanting support with their mental health.

CALL Helpline is available 24/7 to anyone phoning from Wales.
CALL is also a bilingual service, meaning callers can choose to speak to the helpline operator in either Welsh or English.

CALL also offers a service through Language Line, which allows a caller to speak to the Helpline Operator in their language of choice.

The CALL Helpline has recently received training on a range of neurodivergent conditions and how to adapt our practice. We are therefore able to extend our service to provide a non judgemental listening ear to neurodivergent individuals, their families and carers. This includes the parents of neurodivergent children. You do not need to have a formal diagnosis in order to access the CALL Helpline, you may already be on a waiting list for diagnosis or you may think you, your child, or loved one may have a neurodivergent condition
