Urgent Help

When you, or someone you know, is in crisis you may need help very quickly.

If the situation doesn’t feel like an emergency, you may prefer to contact your GP during working hours, to contact Newport Mind to make an appointment, or to find some online resources.

In Wales, you can call NHS Direct Wales 24/7 on 0845 4647 to find out what immediate support is available near you.

If you are in extreme crisis, you think you might be at risk of seriously harming yourself or doing something which might harm someone else, you should go to your nearest hospital A&E Department and ask for help or call 999.
