About

Why us?

NottAlone is a website providing information and mental health support for people in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.

 

NottAlone isn’t a mental health service, so we do not offer contact details for you to get in touch with us directly. Instead, we are here as a touch point to connect you to help from the right places. You will see support links at the bottom of each topic where you can contact the relevant help services for your needs.

 

If you need urgent help, you can call 0808 196 3779 to speak to a mental health professional 24/7, or call 999.

 

Are you from a local mental health support service and don’t see your organisation listed on our website? Please complete the add/amend a service form and list your organisation details for us to review.

Who are we?

NottAlone was originally created in 2021 to help young people, parents and carers and professionals to access the right mental health information and support for them.

 

Young people, parents and carers were part of the design team from the beginning, sharing their insight to help make sure NottAlone meets the needs of local people in Nottingham City and County. Key partners include Nottinghamshire County Council, Nottingham City Council and the NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board.

 

In 2024 NottAlone expanded to offer support for people of all ages. The same approach was taken to developing the brand, engaging with co-production groups made up of people with lived experience and professionals who work in the mental health field. Everything from the content to the graphics, colour choices and flow of the website has been co-produced.
