Community Counselling for Scarborough Borough

A North Yorkshire counselling charity is asking the public to help design a local counselling service for the people of Scarborough.

Malton-based counselling charity Community Counselling is asking residents of Scarborough for their input in designing a new adult counselling service in Scarborough. The charity will be applying for funding to develop and deliver this service but would like to hear views of the local community, so that the charity can provide the best service possible.

Community Counselling has already launched a children’s counselling and play therapy service in Scarborough and Whitby with funding secured from the Woodsmith Foundation. It will now do the same for adults living in the Scarborough borough.

Deputy Manager Ellie Johnston says:

‘We know this service is needed in Scarborough; we are frequently contacted by residents of Scarborough asking for help. We currently don’t have the capacity to support them, which is why we need to secure more funding. If you live in the Scarborough area, please complete our survey to help us identify what is needed in Scarborough.’

For more information about how to access Community Counselling’s servicers, including our children’s service please visit:

This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
