A mental health crisis (sometimes called a mental health emergency) is when a person’s mental or emotional state worsens quickly. It often means that you no longer feel able to cope or be in control of your situation.
This can be a frightening experience, you may feel scared, overwhelmed or alone but the important thing to remember is that you are not alone and there is support available to help you feel better.

Help us to improve our services by giving feedback, providing support to others, or by becoming a member or a governor.

Our vision is to provide outstanding mental health and learning disability services as an employer of choice, and support our service users, carers, our staff and the communities we serve to live healthy and fulfilling lives.
We need people like you to help us achieve our goals; to live our lives free from stigma and discrimination; and to improve the lives of people with a learning disability and mental ill health.
