Islanders struggling with mental health during Christmas have been reminded of support services available.

Jersey’s government said The Listening Lounge, which supports adults experiencing common mental health difficulties, would remain open in the lead-up to Christmas and the new year.

It said people could access support around the clock through the digital mental health platform TogetherAll or Samaritans.

The government added anyone in need of urgent help could contact the Adult Mental Health 24-hour Crisis Team by calling 445290 while the adult Community Mental Health Team would be available from 09:00 to 17:00 GMT on Boxing Day.
