Crisis Cafés in Devon, Torbay & Plymouth: What Professionals Need to Know
Mental Health Matters operates The Moorings Crisis Cafés across Devon and Torbay, and works in partnership with Colebrook, who operate Head Space, a Crisis Café service running across three venues in Plymouth.
This webinar was designed to enhance professionals’ understanding of how the Crisis Cafés operate across Devon, Torbay & Plymouth, and how they fit within the wider system of urgent mental health support.
The presentation covers an overview of the service, including who it’s for, the support available, how to refer or access the service, and how professionals across different roles can make best use of it.
Thanks to the Devon Mental Health Alliance's generous offer to host the recording on their professional’s portal, we are pleased to be able to make this available to colleagues across the region.
You can now view the full webinar, along with a range of training videos, for free on the Devon Mental Health Alliance Professionals’ Portal
