Are you or is someone you care about experiencing a mental health crisis?

These community-based services offer immediate support in a safe environment, a listening ear, practical support and quick referral to a mental health assessment if required. They’re staffed by volunteers and specially trained peer support workers and further supported by specialist mental health professionals. They’re an alternative to A&E and provide easier and more appropriate access for anyone experiencing emotional distress or a mental health crisis.
