Mental health

If you are concerned about your mental health you can access support and treatment in a number of ways:

Emergency

Dial 999 if you think that your life, or that of another person is at immediate risk.

Call 111 for the Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire 24/7 NHS Mental Health Helpline if you need urgent mental health support. Speak to a mental health clinician who can advise on self-help, signpost to other sources of support and make direct referrals into all parts of local mental health services.
