London Mental Health Strategy puts prevention first with 24/7 community support

Unveiled on World Suicide Prevention Day, London’s Mental Health Strategy shifts the focus to prevention, faster access, and support close to home. Plans include 24/7 neighborhood services, school-based teams, improved inpatient care, and help for people with substance use needs. Self-referral to NHS Talking Therapies is central, removing the need for a diagnosis and lowering barriers to care.
