Hide AdIt provides early intervention for over 18s who are living or are registered with a GP across Bedford Borough and Central Bedfordshire through online, face-to-face and telephone therapy.
The service assessed 11,892 patients in 22/23 and 88 per cent of these entered into treatment within 90 days of their assessment.
People are experiencing an increase in stress, anxiety and worry due to the cost of living crisis, the long term health effects of Covid-19 and the concerning headlines in the news.
The sooner a person asks for help the sooner the service can help them to start feeling better. Early intervention is key.
