Emergency Contacts

If you, or someone you care about, is experiencing an emotional crisis because of sexuality, it is important that you receive professional support. You should speak to your family doctor, GP, or other healthcare professional. If you, or the person you are concerned about, is still in education, speak to a teacher, tutor, or lecturer.
