If you, or someone you know needs urgent help, check the yellow pages of the phone book for your local psychiatric emergency service, or ring your local hospital or mental health service.
Hospital phone numbers are in the Yellow Pages.
If you think someone is in danger of being hurt, or hurting themselves, call 111 immediately and ask for the Police.
In the meantime, stay calm. Give the person who is unwell plenty of space and quiet. Explain that you are frightened and what it is about their behaviour that is frightening you.
