What is NiteLine?

Established since 1993

NiteLine is an out-of-hours peer support service for third level students. We offer a listening and information service run by and for third level students every night of the week during term-time. We provide a service that is anonymous, confidential, non-judgemental and non-directive.

What Makes NiteLine Different?

  • We are a tailored support service for student mental health.
  • Our affiliated colleges can tailor the information we give out to reflect the support services available in their specific college.
  • We are open at night when other services are closed.
  • We actively recruit students from our affiliated colleges, creating a population of individuals who are highly trained and capable of supporting their peers.
  • As peers, we don’t tell our callers what to do. We listen, give information if the caller wishes, and support them to make their own decisions.
  • We take calls about everything from suicide, to how someone’s day went, to how a student can contact their college counselling service.
