You can make a difference
Your donation, however big or small, helps us make sure there’s a voice at the end of the phone for Durham students. We are run entirely by student volunteers, and receive no university funding, which means we rely on support from people like you to keep our vital, potentially life-saving services running.
Did you know that you could help us support 25 students with a donation of £14.68?

You can make a one-off donation that will go directly to Durham Nightline, helping us continue to be there throughout the night for Durham students.

Setting up a regular monthly donation allows us to invest in new initiatives that can help us better support our volunteers and raise awareness of our service among Durham students.
