Access Mental Health during the pandemic
The COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation is particularly difficult for people who are experiencing mental ill health and emotional distress. The situation is unprecedented and will impact the way that we run our Access Mental Health services.
Our face-to-face drop-ins are back open for The Retreats in Bournemouth and Dorchester and Community Front Rooms, and we are continuing to offer virtual support.
The Retreat, Bournemouth is open for face-to-face and virtual drop-ins from 4.30-11.30pm every day.
The Retreat, Dorchester is open for face-to-face drop-ins from 4.30-11.30pm Sunday-Wednesday and virtual drop-ins from 4.30-11.30pm every day.
Community Front Rooms are open Thursday-Sunday from 3.15-10.45pm in Bridport, Wareham, Weymouth and Shaftsbury for face-to-face and virtual drop-ins.
The 24/7 Connection phone line is open. If you require urgent mental health support call 0800 652 0190 or NHS 111 and you will be signposted to the right service for the support you need. Healthcare professionals can also contact Connection for help and signposting. The team will direct them as needed.
