In order to alleviate pressure on primary care and accident and emergency departments, our staff will be available 24/7 to provide advice, guidance and support over the phone to anyone who may be worried about their own or someone else's mental health.

The telephone line - 0800 953 1919 - provides round-the-clock support for adults and children, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

If you or your loved one feels unsafe, at risk or unable to cope without professional advice, our dedicated staff, will respond to your enquiries and arrange for trained mental health advisors and clinicians to help enable you to manage your difficulties.  

The Mental Health 24/7 Response Line works closely with our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) to provide support and signpost people to other services for anyone in the general population seeking mental health support.
