Our West Sussex Connect to Support website has information about mental health issues and how to get help and support.
You can find information:
- on self-help techniques to manage symptoms or prevent problems developing or getting worse
- and support for you or someone you know who might be thinking about suicide
- about services that might be able to help you.
Information for young people
Specifically for young people, we have information on emotional wellbeing and mental health available on Your Space. This includes detail on the Youth Emotional Support (YES) service, a free service for young people aged 11-18 looking for support with their wellbeing.
The West Sussex Single Point of Access (SPoA) is a dedicated service which provides a simplified single route to access specialist emotional wellbeing and mental health support. The SPoA helps direct you to the right service, eliminating the need to refer to multiple services.
Led by Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, the service is delivered in partnership with West Sussex County Council’s Youth Emotional Support Service (YES) and YMCA Dialogue.
