Mental Health Support in North Tyneside – information leaflet

In August 2019 we released an updated information guide to support groups and services in North Tyneside that support people’s mental health. People can self-refer to all of the services included and most are free to use.

We are updating the leaflet as many of the groups are working in different ways during the coronavirus outbreak due to social distancing rules.

Local people told us they find it difficult to know where to go for support with their mental health needs, particularly whilst they are waiting to access NHS services. The guide was originally developed by asking Launchpad Service User and Survivor Forum and Community Health and Care Forum Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) Patient Forum what support people found useful.

The updated guide was distributed to GP practices, health services and community venues across North Tyneside.
