The Coves is a community based crisis alternative service, provided by Hestia on behalf of Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust, offering non-clinical support to individuals experiencing a crisis or mental distress, following assessment by the identified CNWL services. We offer urgent appointments to make sure each person gets dedicated time and support.
We provide a welcoming, safe and supportive space as well as a hot drink and a snack, for anyone (16+ in Brent, Harrow, Hillingdon and KCW) who is assessed to be experiencing or are at risk of developing mental health distress. The Coves aim to equip people with the skills they need to reduce their immediate anxiety, formulate individual self-directed support plans and provide them with information / advice around the local services and resources that may help them moving forward.
