You don’t need all the answers to reach out.
Whether it’s a difficult day or a longer journey, there’s a place to start.
A CLEARER PATH TO SUPPORT
Local contacts.
A human connection.
HelplineMalta.com is an independent directory bringing together helplines, community organisations and practical support contacts across the islands.
We don’t provide counselling or monitor emergencies. Contact the services directly. Short numbers are intended for callers in Malta; access from abroad can vary.
In immediate danger? Call 112.
How are the contacts checked?
Listings link to government or service-provider sources checked on 2 November 2026. Office contacts are labelled separately from helplines. Published opening hours are included where confirmed; other listings ask you to confirm with the provider.
Are all calls and services free?
Only confirmed free contact channels have a “Free call” or “Free chat” badge. Treatment, appointments and other services may have separate fees. Ask the provider. A 24/7 badge describes published availability, not a guarantee of an immediate answer.
How do saved contacts work?
Bookmarks stay in this browser on this device. Searches are not saved by this directory. Remove a bookmark using its save button, or clear them below. Your phone and chat providers may keep their own records.

Where did this directory begin?
Inspired by the Maltese Charities helplines directory ↗, with expanded contacts and direct links to providers. Always check the provider’s website for changes.
