How can we help?
Launch of our new webchat!
Since the start of the pandemic we have identified the need to be creative with delivering our services and have successfully delivered virtual one-to-one’s and group sessions when face-to-face wasn’t possible. This highlighted the need to be virtually accessible going forward and inspired the decision to launch our new webchat service!
The new online chat service makes accessing support and information faster and provides another way to get in touch without the need to call. It also makes communication easier for those who do not speak English as their first language as a result of the translation functions.
The chat is open on weekdays between 9:30am and 4:30pm where we have a dedicated team waiting to offer advice, support and information for all of our services.
To access the chat, click the small pop-up in the bottom left of the screen.
