This is a ‘lifeline for Lifeline’, but just $600,000 more could return 24/7 service

The telehealth service Lifeline, which handles around 100,000 calls annually, has been given a much-needed $1.2 million boost to keep going. This funding is crucial as it's currently on the brink of losing its 24/7 service, with only $600,000 more needed to restore round-the-clock availability. This service is vital for providing support to those in mental health crises, and maintaining it full-time ensures no one is left without immediate help. The additional funding could make a huge difference, highlighting the importance of accessible mental health support.
