Breathing Space is a free, confidential, phone and webchat service for anyone in Scotland over the age of 16 experiencing low mood, depression or anxiety. We are here in times of difficulty to provide a safe and supportive space by listening, offering advice and providing information.
Opening hours:
- Weekdays: Monday-Thursday 6pm to 2am
- Weekend: Friday 6pm-Monday 6am
Our advisors come from a range of mental health, counselling and social work backgrounds. There is an equal ratio of male to female advisors, who may be part-time or full-time. Breathing Space is not a volunteer service. The service is managed by NHS 24 and delivered from NHS 24 contact centres in Hillington and South Queensferry.
