Are you in crisis or feeling unsafe?

We’re really sorry you're feeling this way.

Aligned is not a crisis service, and we’re unable to provide immediate help. But there are organisations who can support you 24/7 — please don’t wait to reach out.

If you’re in immediate danger or need urgent help

Call 999 or go to your nearest Accident & Emergency (A&E) department.
