The Nottinghamshire Crisis Sanctuaries provides mental health crisis support to the communities of Nottinghamshire.
Each Crisis Sanctuary will have 3 trained Crisis Intervention Workers who will provide recovery-focused crisis support in a trusted and consistent space for people who require out of hours mental health support. If required, onward community referrals will be made. If you would prefer not to attend the Crisis Sanctuaries, support can be provided via telephone or through video calling platforms. The Crisis Sanctuaries are for anyone near, or at crisis who need a safe space to talk.
The Crisis Sanctuaries are delivered through a partnership of Framework and Mind, to collectively support the communities of Nottinghamshire.
