Mental Health Support

In conjunction with Derbyshire County Council, Dronfield Town Council have recently installed a number of mental health support posters within bus stops across Dronfield.

The posters provide information and support to the community when it comes to Mental Health Support. Each poster has a QR code with mental health support information, as well as ideas about how to start a conversation around mental wellbeing and a phone number to call for support.

County Councillor Mark Foster said "Each year, one in four people will experience a mental health issue, The information on the posters how residents that the help and support they may need is out there and where they can find it."

The Mental Health Support Map for Derbyshire also helps to highlight available support groups and services. The map covers themes including crises support, outdoor spaces, mental health information and much more. (More information is in the attached image)

The Derbyshire Mental Health Support map has had nearly 100,000 views since being launched in 2020. It has grown progressively and now averages 4,700 visits per month.
