The crisis line is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to people of all ages.
If you’re in a mental health crisis, call the crisis line anytime of the day or night, and we can arrange for you to speak with a mental health professional. We can also advise you about other services, which can help you.
The crisis line is operated by local health workers. Don't worry, they will help you get the right support.
For other medical advice and support contact your GP or visit NHS 111.
Emergency Help
While the Emergency Department and 999 are not the best places to get help for the majority of mental health problems, you should still use these services if you have an immediate, life-threatening emergency requiring mental or physical health assistance.
