Counselling and Health
There are a broad range of times when you, as an individual, may need counselling. This could be for lifestyle issues (alcohol or substance mis-use), domestic problems (debt or poverty), mental health issues (depression, anxiety), or health management issues.

Our Church offers a wide range of support services that are open to everyone within our community, regardless of whether you are a member of our Church or not.

Health Management
