First Response (Bradford, Airedale, Wharfedale or Craven)

Living with mental health problems can be incredibly tough, however there can be times when it is much tougher than usual and you feel overwhelmed and unable to carry on. During a crisis, you might self-harm, have thoughts of suicide, experience mania, have delusions, hallucinations, paranoia or experience thoughts or behaviours which lead you to feeling that you are losing control.

The First Response service offers support 24 hours a day, seven days a week to people of all ages living in Bradford, Airedale, Wharfedale or Craven experiencing a mental health crisis. First Response prefers calls from the person who is in crisis, but also accepts calls from friends, family members or professionals where appropriate.
