This is a partnership event with Chesterfield Borough Council, Derbyshire County Council and Staveley Town Council.

 

The Safe Haven, is a P3 service based in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, which offers vital out-of-hours support for individuals experiencing mental health challenges.

We offer face-to-face and telephone support services for Derbyshire residents experiencing mental health difficulties, helping to reduce immediate distress and ensure people get the right support at the right time.

Our drop-in service provides a relaxed, welcoming space where individuals can chat informally or receive one-to-one emotional support from trained mental health support workers.

This service promotes health and wellbeing, focusing on ways to help people manage their thoughts and feelings during a crisis. We also signpost to other available services for additional specialist support.

Operating between 4:30 PM and 12:30 AM, the service offers face-to-face, non-clinical mental health support in a safe, supportive, and friendly environment. Our goal is to promote recovery through self-empowerment and independence.

You can find more information about the service via the following link:
