We have been looking at our figures for 2020 and how we impacted on the community.

In 2020 Cork Counselling Services:

• • Saw 259 new clients last year, an increase of 30% over the previous year. We had 333 clients in total. These clients were seen regardless of background or ability to pay.

• • Offered 2545 hours of professional one-to-one counselling within the calendar year, a slight decrease as against 2019. This was due to our move to telephone counselling for Level 5 Lockdown periods and the need to implement Covid-19 safety precautions.

• • Our training institute ran programmes at Certificate, Diploma and Degree level for 80 students in total.

• Profits made in training are re-invested into providing our sliding scale counselling service as we are a not-for-profit organisation.
