Lighthouse | Supporting Mental Health in Construction
Delivering support to the construction community since 1956, the Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity was founded by a group
of gentlemen attending an exhibition in Tyneside, when theyfound themselves at the seafront of Whitley Bay.
Then deciding to start something which would benefit and unite the industry, the Lighthouse Club was created, to offer aid
and assistance whether it be emotional, physical, or financial wellbeing to construction workers and their families.
Donate to Lighthouse today and help their 'Help Inside The Hard Hat' campaign, supporting mental health in construction.
The club provides a free and confidential 24/7 helpline, acting as a free employee assistance program for the industry. Whether you're an employer or an employee, this helpline provides the first point of contact for those who need to access a range of completely confidential support services including:
Construction Industry Helpline App
Their app complements the 24/7 helpline which acts as the ultimate self-help tool from Lighthouse. Aimed at those who may not feel comfortable speaking with someone
or would like more information about how they can help themselves, before taking a step towards finding professional help.

Among it's other known benefits, Lighthouse also offer a variety of free construction-oriented training programmes, ranging from hour long interactive wellbeing sessions through to the MHFA England approved Mental Health First Aider course, which you can sign up for via Lighthouse's website.
