You can now use the NHS 111 service in a mental health crisis for immediate help and advice.
Please spread the word so that everyone knows to use 111 if you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis. Importantly, you should still use 999 if there is a risk to life, for example, a serious injury or overdose.
A mental health emergency should be taken as seriously as a physical one. You will not be wasting anyone’s time.
Get help from 111 online or call 111 and select the mental health option.
