    Almost £400,000 is to be spent on a new so-called "crisis pad" in Hull which will give police a place of safety for people suffering a mental health crisis or distress rather than using a cell or A&E. 

    Some of the £400,000 will also go on improving one of the existing health-based places of safety.

    Quote Message

    The crisis pad initiative will offer people experiencing crisis or distress access to a calm, safe, environment providing support and therapeutic interventions and where necessary, rapid access to a suitably-qualified practitioner who can assess their needs."
