Why the community needs usCounselling makes a lasting difference to people's lives. It empowers them to gain understanding and take control, improving their quality of life and that of the people around them. Through counselling people are able to explore what matters to them and resolve difficulties that they experience more confidently. At the end of their counselling, most Compass clients say that they feel significantly better.

It can assist development of an empathic approach to others, providing strategies to cope with stress, anger and depression through enhanced communication, improving quality of life.
We are seeking volunteer fundraisers, counsellors, supervisors and trustees to develop the work of Compass.
