NORTH LANCASHIRE COUNSELLING SERVICE – AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE

The Trustees, with the agreement of the management committee and our loyal group of volunteers, have taken the difficult decision to close our service. This was formally agreed in April 2024.

This decision has been taken against a backdrop of a dwindling number of volunteers able to offer counselling to our ever increasing waiting list of clients, coupled with difficulties in recruiting student counsellors and trustees able and willing to take the service forward.

We are currently operating a limited counselling service, with a maximum number of sessions, to those individuals who remain on our waiting list. We expect this to be completed before the end of 2024.

We are not accepting any further enquiries or referrals for counselling.

We no longer have premises in Sulyard Street. If you need to write to us, please use the “Get in touch” button with a short message outlining the subject matter. We will then be able to give you an appropriate postal address.

We wish to thank everyone who has volunteered their time and effort over the last 30+ years and, for those who have used our services in the past, we wish you well for the future.
