Where to get urgent help if you’re experiencing a mental health crisis or emergency, you're in a life threatening situation, or you're worried about your mental health.
Keeping people safe in a hospital or care home, can sometimes involve them being restricted or restrained. This is known as being deprived of your liberty.
Some people can't make decisions for themselves, this is known as lacking mental capacity. We can help if you can’t make decisions for yourself, or you have to make decisions for someone else.
If you or someone close to you is worried about memory loss, confusion, language difficulties or behaviour changes or is living with dementia, find advice and support from the NHS and other organisations across the city.
If you're experiencing abuse or neglect, or you're worried about someone else, tell us. This is often referred to as a safeguarding concern and we can help.
If you find it difficult to express yourself, and you don’t have a friend or relative who can support you, an advocate can help make sure your voice is heard.
