History

Lifeline South Coast exists to support people in crisis and ensure that no person has to face their toughest moments alone. For over 50 years, our highly skilled volunteers have provided crucial moments of connection that bring hope and save lives.

Our history

We were established in Wollongong in March 1969 and the Nowra branch was opened in 1981. The service is non-denominational and Volunteer Telephone Crisis Supporters come from a wide range of backgrounds.
