Partnering with Waterloo Community Counselling
Building Hope, Healing and Community - Together
At Waterloo Community Counselling, we provide free and affordable counselling for people facing the greatest barriers to mental health support — including refugees, asylum seekers and local residents on low incomes.
As we enter our Year of Hope and Healing, demand for our services continues to grow. Last year alone, we supported 659 people through more than 7,900 counselling sessions, and the need keeps rising.
This is where our partners play a vital role.
By partnering with WCC, your organisation becomes part of a community‑rooted, trauma‑informed approach that ensures people experiencing hardship, displacement or financial barriers can access safe, dignified and culturally responsive therapy.

Partnership Spotlight: Circe’s Rooftop Bar
Partnership Spotlight: Circe’s Rooftop Bar
Our partnership with Circe’s Rooftop Bar shows what’s possible when local businesses and charities unite around shared values. As Circe’s chosen charity partner, we’re proud to work together to make mental health support more accessible and affordable for Londoners who need it most.
From creative fundraising initiatives to ongoing donations from selected cocktail and small‑plate sales, Circe’s has embraced our mission with generosity and care — turning everyday moments into meaningful impact.
The spirit of this collaboration came to life at the Garden of the Gods Charity Party in April 2026, an evening of connection, celebration and community. Thanks to Circe’s and their supporters, vital funds were raised to directly support our counselling services.
