What we do

The sanctuary is an out-of-hours service that provides practical and therapeutic person-centred support to anyone at risk of mental health crisis. Our mission extends beyond mere intervention; we strive to provide a sanctuary where individuals can find solace and support during hours of need. By offering a safe space outside traditional hours, we aim to lessen the need for hospital admissions and minimise the risk of harm to individuals in their homes.
