OUR STORY

WHO ARE WE?

Vision

Jigsaw Community Counselling Centre seeks to make a difference to the people of North Belfast and beyond by providing a caring, professional and confidential counselling service that will help people to be the best they can be.

History

Jigsaw CCC is the brainchild of Carol Massey and the organisation launched on 21st June 2010.

As a young person growing up in North Belfast, Carol was only too aware of the problems facing society. The vision was to have a place where people could come and feel safe to talk about problem issues that were affecting them.

After introducing the schools counselling service into a number of local primary schools it became clear that to maintain the positive changes a holistic approach was needed whereby parents, carers, teachers, and others in the wider community could get the support they needed.

Jigsaw now provides accessible and inclusive counselling to hundreds of adults and young people each year.
