Use this page if food insecurity is linked to stress, anxiety, emotional wellbeing, bereavement, homelessness-related mental health needs or support for children and young people.
The original Leeds FAN Mental Health page lists a range of organisations. This redesigned summary keeps the route clearer by grouping the main support options before sending users to official provider websites.
Use this route when food support alone is not enough and wider mental health or wellbeing support may also be needed.
The original site lists different kinds of organisations, not one single mental health service.
If you need urgent food first, return to Get Help or Food Banks before coming back to this page.
The original site describes MindWell as the mental health website for people in Leeds.
It brings together information from the NHS in Leeds, Leeds City Council and third-sector services into one main starting point.
The original site says Leeds Mind supports people with mental health problems across Leeds.
It lists services including wellbeing support, 1:1 work, befriending, counselling, peer support, employment support and housing.
The original site includes Touchstone as a provider of health and wellbeing services, including psychological therapies and community support.
This route is useful if your needs are linked to wider wellbeing, community mental health or support with multiple needs.
The original site lists Solace for therapy, training and advocacy for refugees and asylum seekers.
This is a more specific route and is especially relevant when mental health support is linked to persecution, exile or asylum experience.
The original page also includes organisations such as PSI-Volition and Community Links.
In current service terms, Leeds Mental Wellbeing Service brings together support from NHS and partner organisations including Community Links and Touchstone.
The original site includes Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) for children and young people under 18 and their families.
Use this route when mental health difficulties are affecting daily life for a child or young person.
If your situation is mainly linked to debt, benefits or welfare, go back to Advice & Support and choose Debt & Welfare.
