All ages 24/7 mental health helplines across the country

As of May 2020, all NHS mental health trusts in England have had open urgent mental health helplines, four years ahead of the original NHS Long Term Plan target. Our 24/7 all ages NHS mental health helplines were set up, or in some cases expanded, as part of the mental health sector’s response to COVID-19 and have supported around 250,000 people a month since they were rolled out.

You can find more case study examples of the helplines and how they have supported the public. Find your local mental health helpline via nhs.uk/urgentmentalhealth.
