Edinburgh Crisis Centre (ECC)

The Edinburgh Crisis Centre is open 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year and provides community-based, emotional and practical support at times of mental health crisis through a freephone helpline, support email or text. From this contact, you can also arrange a video call (Zoom) or face-to-face appointment with one of the team members (usually these will be arranged on the same day). At the appointment, the option for further support and rest in the centre can be discussed.

The centre is for people aged 16 years and over and resident in the Edinburgh City area who are experiencing a mental health crisis.
