Mental Health and Wellbeing Support

Since 2017, the region has seen an increase in suicides, prompting the introduction of Hello Lamp Post at three key physical locations and online. Since 2021, we’ve provided the community with round-the-clock access to mental health advice and resources, to support the council’s “Let’s Talk” campaign. Our platform offers tailored assistance for both adults and those under 18, ensuring help is available whenever it’s needed.
