IMPORTANT

It is hard to keep the information on this website completely up to date, especially with changes that are still occurring due to the pandemic. If you can’t find information about what is happening with the Service you are interested in on the NEWS page (searchable) please use the website links and contact details given to find out the current situation.

What Is Hope For Mental Health?

As someone who has had mental health problems I realise that when it comes to finding information it should be as easy as possible. It might be that you don’t even know what to search for or who or what might be able to help. You may not even know if what you feel is a mental health issue.

I have brought together national and local information about organisations who can help if you have any mental health concerns onto one website. I have found that ‘googling’ or similar does not always bring up all the useful information that there is out there and I think having national and local organisations on the same website could be helpful. I hope to make it clear exactly who the different groups can help if it is not obvious from the name. I hope to update the site regularly and along with the news page keep everyone informed about the help that is available in whatever form that is.
