Focus Counselling is a charity that aims to improve mental health support in the BANES area and beyond through affordable, professional counselling. We are dedicated to ensuring that everyone, regardless of income, can access affordable, high-quality, and accessible mental health support.

We are a team of qualified and trainee counsellors who offer acceptance, warmth and compassion. Focus Counselling is a safe place where individuals can explore their feelings and access support with managing their lives.

Donations fund counselling sessions for those vulnerable clients who are struggling financially. £54 pays for one full price session, while £220 pays for around 4 sessions, so any donation really does make a difference! Any donation, no matter the size, will be greatly appreciated.

We currently have 23 amazing people running to raise money for Focus.

Thank you ever so much for contributing to our cause.
