The Barriers

Why Families Struggle to Access Support

We recognise the urgent need for support in a world where too many are left waiting when in a mental health crisis.

Finances

Counselling costs remain unaffordable to many individuals.

Waiting Time

Long waiting times in public mental health services delay access to care.

Stigma

Social pressures and stigma discourages people from seeking help.
