Life Linc Charitable Trust

To provide a caring, confidential, non-judgemental, and client focused individual/ couples counselling service to those who seek it. Life Linc Charitable Trust (formerly Lifeline/Life Linc Nelson) was established in 1974 and at that time its aim was to field local calls a few hours during the day time. Over the years the telephone counselling increased to seven days a week, and was serviced by a dedicated team of approx. 25-30 100% volunteer telephone counsellors. The telephone counselling service ceased in 2016.

In 2006 the Face to Face counselling was established as a short term one on one counselling service offered to our local community who could benefit from extra support.

We believe that all people are to be valued and that they can change and grow. Life Linc’s aim is to help restore and encourage people to make positive changes through self-awareness. With the changes to the Incorporated Society Act, it was felt that moving to a Charitable Trust was a better fit.
