SUPPORT: HOW TO GET HELP

Getting the right support at the right times can make a big difference. Support services can help you work out what has happened, understand your response, offer space to think about what you would like to do and support you with your next steps. 

Our SHAPRA is a safe channel for accessing independent professional support and advice and can help you access the help you need. Click here to find out about the free SHAPRA service available to people in the music community.  

Help is available, whether you have experienced sexual harm, have been accused or have done harm, are supporting someone involved, are looking for help as a business / PCBU, or want to know about reporting options. 

If sexual assault has just happened or if someone is currently in danger, please call the Police on 111.

If you are looking for support about issues other than sexual harm, you can contact the MusicHelps Backline Service /  0508 MUSICHELPS for 24/7 support for anyone involved in the music industry who is in need of support or is worried about someone else.  

Please note: If the first support service you call is not what you are looking for, please do try again or get some support from someone you trust to help you find one that feels right.
