Australia-wide Help-line

Christadelphian Support Services SA


HELP-LINE: 08 8270 4115

Want someone to talk to? Have a problem and not sure where to find the right assistance? Looking for counselling from a Bible-oriented perspective?

If this is what’s happening for you, the Christadelphian Support Services SA is there to help. We offer free, confidential counselling to all brothers, sisters and their families, either by telephone or in some cases, personal face-to-face. Our trained volunteer telephone contact people and counsellors are experienced in a wide variety of issues, and, if needed, can assist you with referrals to the right professional or service provider.

Confidentiality is an important part of our service. Everything you say will be treated as confidential, unless it’s an issue of imminent danger to yourself or others, or a case for mandatory reporting.

To contact us, please call our Helpline - 08 8270 4115. If it is not answered immediately, the volunteer operating the Helpline will return your call as soon as they can. They will assist you, or, if you live in South Australia, provide you with contact details for face-to-face counselling if preferred.

Our website also offers information and links to other resources – but maybe under reconstruction at this point in time: https://supportnetwork.org.au/sa/

Christadelphian Support Service SA is financed and organised by seven South Australian ecclesias, but reach out nationally and overseas to members of our community seeking help. While we do our very best to answer or return calls as soon as possible, it is not a 24-hour service. If you require urgent help, please contact your GP, nearest hospital or LIFELINE – PH 13 11 14.
