Pretty much as it says in the title really!

The topic in the main forum is good and all, but it suffers from the same problem as the one in the Life Issues sticky.
INFORMATION OVERLOAD!

So, what I propose is that there is a new subforum to be made. And in this sub-forum, all the help-lines are split into topics. So all the ones for child abuse would go into one topic, general helplines in another...

That sort of thing.
Make it easy to navigate! You don't need half of the helplines that are in that original topic. Keep it simple, if you try and cover everything, you end up covering nothing. =P
If someone does want to know something then we can find out for them the additional helpline, OR they ring up one of the helplines we have listed who will then refer them onto the appropriate people that they need to speak to.

Simple, yeah?

And then, in a DIFFERENT sub-forum, the same but for online support groups and websites.
For instance, Breakup Girl and Pandora's Aquarium for instance.

It's all about ease of access to information, yo.

I'll get to work on it when I get some free time, as it's a bit of a busy week at the moment!
