About our information
service
Our service
is open to anyone in York and the surrounding district. We can provide information on such issues as mental illness and distress,
treatment and medication options, local support groups and specialist
agencies.
You
can call us for information and support for your own mental health
needs, or if you are concerned about a friend or relative.
We know that it can be difficult to take the
first step and ask for help or advice. Our information service staff
will help you to work out
what your options are and what help or information is most appropriate
for you.
For some people an internal
referral will be suitable either to our counselling
service or the York
Mind Advocacy Project. We can also help you access other suitable
services and support groups.
Our
information resources include Mind's award winning booklets on a range
of mental health issues – a selection of these is included on this site
(follow the links).
We also have information on
other organisations both locally and nationally and can research any
mental health issue further in response to callers' queries.
Our
information service is currently open Monday,
Wednesday and Friday, 2pm to 7pm.
