Accessing Maytree
There are two ways to access Maytree.
1. If you are experiencing suicidal crisis, you can contact us directly on 0207263 7070 or at Maytree@maytree.org.uk to discuss whether Maytree may be the right support for you.
2. You may also be referred by a healthcare professional or support organisation.
Whichever route you take, we will begin with an initial conversation and assessment before deciding together whether a stay at Maytree is appropriate.
