Helplines

You are not alone. Help is available.

There are moments when something is wrong. When we feel fear, uncertainty, shame or anxiety. When we feel we don’t dare or can’t speak up. Yet that is exactly when we need someone the most.
We want you to know that help is always available. You have the right to be safe.

If you are in trouble, you can also speak up at any hospitality venue where you see the blue QR code! These places stand up against all forms of violence.If you are scared, feel harassed, are in danger or just want to talk – you will not be left alone here. You can ask the staff for help, even anonymously.

In an emergency:
