If you are worried about your own or someone else’s declining mental health

In the first instance, contact your GP, who can make fast-track referrals to the Community Mental Health Team. Or visit the nearest hospital A&E department which can undertake mental health assessments, signpost you to support or offer advice.

Please speak to your GP or present to A&E if you need to access mental health support and assessments.

If you believe there is an immediate risk of harm please call 999.
