Why we need your support
We want to live in a society where everyone is able to cope with distress and has the opportunity to enjoy a happy life
There has never been a more important time to focus on mental health. Part of the urgent response for the people of Stockport and surrounding areas, Beacon continues to help around 2000 adults, young people and children with over 12,000 appointments each year to stay mentally well and recovering when mental health suffered.
Beacon’s Voluntary Service is our free counselling service delivered by dedicated volunteer counsellors. It supports the alleviation of poverty for those held back by poor mental health; many of whom are out of work or with a disability.
Our essential free counselling service wouldn’t exist without the kind donations we receive from donors
As we have grown, we are increasingly engaging with people struggling with multiple, complex needs. However, demand for our services has escalated significantly; with our COVID response and recovery work including the development of new support to meet the needs of our community and more than ever, we need financial support to fund this work to help us transform lives.
Every pound received is invested back into our work
Now, more than ever, we are seeking support towards our core services to help us to continue our response to build resilience within our communities. Your donation can help Beacon shine a light on a brighter future at the darkest of times.
