1 Day to the Video Launch:

1 - #OneNightline is our assurance to you, the callers of York Nightline - but what does it actually mean?
Put simply, it’s a promise that whenever you call Nightline, you’ll receive the same quality of response from us.
We’ll stay with you in a call for as long as you need, always uphold our three-non rule and do our utmost to respect your anonymity and confidentiality.

Run by students, for students, Nightline is here to listen.

2 days to the Video Launch:

2 - Whilst Nightline is based in Grimston House on the University of York’s Campus West, our service in fact serves students from the two universities in York - the University of York and York St John University.
All students - undergraduate/ postgraduate, on campus/off campus, on a traditional year of study/on placement - can utilise every aspect of our service.
Whilst we may be unable to send free sexual health supplies through the internal mail to students of York St John University, we can provide you with information about where to obtain them independently. Every other aspect of our service remains the same irrespective of which university you attend.

3 Days to Video Launch:

3 - You might’ve heard about Nightine’s three nons, but what are they and how do they affect what we do?
Nightline believes in giving people space to reflect on what’s on their mind - something we achieve by truly listening to our callers.
.
Being non-judgemental allows our callers to talk to us about absolutely anything without the need for restraint.
.
Operating in a non-assumptive way means that we consider each call totally separately, and only work with the information you give us - we don’t think we know anymore than you’ve told us.
.
By being non-directive, we ensure that the decision to take a certain course of action - or not - isn’t affected by any potential external influence from us.

By upholding these three nons, we can provide a consistent #OneNightline service to all.

4 Days to Video Launch:

4 - Nightline often uses the word ‘call’ in reference to our service, but you can contact us in many more ways than just by phone. In fact, there are 4 different ways you can get in contact with us: Ringing 01904 323735, Visiting our flat on the ground floor of Grimston House (UoY Campus), Instant Messaging via www.yorknightline.org.uk, or emailing ‘listening@york.nightline.ac.uk’.

Nightline is pleased to announce the release of a new video, designed to explain and promote our service.
To celebrate its launch, we will be holding a 5 day countdown to its release on Saturday 13th October 2018. As part of this countdown, we will be featuring facts about our service that relate to the number of days left to the video release!

5 - As a caller of York Nightline, we are able to provide you with 5 free condoms per call should you request them. These can be picked up directly from our flat on the ground floor of Grimston House, or from your college reception if we have received an email, IM or phone call with your request, name and college.

Today is World Animal Day, and at Nightline we’re celebrating our very own animal - Kevin Cow!
Kevin’s been a loyal mascot for many years now, so feel free to join us in appreciating him (and checking out the pictures of him in action around the UoY Campus with Nightsafe and Vanbrugh College!). Do you have any pictures with Kevin you’d like to share?

York Nightline officially reopens tonight at 8pm - Open for calls, IMs and Emails. We will be closing at the earlier time of 2am.

We've relocated to Grimston House (close to Vanbrugh College/University Radio York) but aren't quite ready to take visits yet; we'll let you know when this changes.
To find out more about what we do, an explanation of #OneNightline can be found on our Facebook Page.

Want to talk? Don’t know what to say?
