We aren't a counselling service, and we don't aim to give solutions to callers, but by listening, talking, and discussing with a caller how they feel about their situation, we aim to enable them to find their own solutions. Linkline's Principles Linkline is based on four central principles Confidentiality - Anything which you say on the phone is treated with the utmost confidentiality. We believe that a call should offer a chance to talk wth security about anything which is on your mind, without concern that anyone in your daily life could find out. Anonymity - Strongly connected to confidentiality is anonymity. We won't ask your name or college, and our phone line has had the 1471 function disabled.
Every caller is afforded as much anonymity as they desire.
We won't tell you what to do, but we can talk through your options with you, and can help you make your own decision. This way you can find a solution based on your understanding of your situation, not someone else's interpretation. No matter what may have happened, or what you want to talk about, we will not judge any caller. Linkline has no religous or political affiliation, and is an independent body within the University with no outside influences of any sort.
