Derby Safe Haven

Feel like things are too much? Thinking about going to A&E for mental health support? Derby Safe Haven can help.

Safe Haven provides a responsive, tailored support service for people over the age of 18 in Derbyshire, who are experiencing a period of mental ill health or crisis. 

Derby Safe Haven, run by charity Richmond Fellowship, who have recently merged with Humankind, offers out-of-hours support on a self-referral basis every day of the week between 4.30pm to 12.30am for anyone struggling and needing a friendly face to talk to. The service operates on a face-to-face and telephone support basis for Derby residents experiencing difficulties with their mental health.

• You can visit them in person at 309 Burton Road, Derby DE23 6AG.
• A person, or their referrer, can contact the Derbyshire Mental Health Helpline on 0800 028 0077 to discuss their current needs. If it is agreed that the Safe Haven is a good option, the Safe Haven team will contact the caller and facilitate same day access.
• You can also now self-refer directly to the Safe Haven by calling: 0330 008 3722

Safe Haven provides a compassionate and non-judgemental service in a welcoming and therapeutic environment.

The aim of the service is to work with people to develop a plan around:

• their ongoing safety and wellbeing
• the next steps in their recovery
• building a sense of hope for the future.
