Councillors call for City Hall to cover funding this year as service drops capacity by 60 percent
West Wellbeing Suicide Awareness, based at Stewartstown Road opened its doors in 2021, and since then has provided 21,000 hours of counselling and support for people affected by poor mental health.
Councillor Collins said: “West Wellbeing is in desperate need of funding so that they continue their life-saving work. The current funding shortfall will see 120 counselling sessions lost each week. “I would urge other councillors to back the motion and ensure West Wellbeing can continue to deliver its services until the end of 2023, when it can avail of other funding streams.”
