People experiencing suicidal thoughts are being offered a new path to immediate support, as part of a new trial in Hounslow, Hammersmith and Ealing.

Psychiatrists working with experts from the mental health charity Mind will identify adults in need in A&E, and divert them to one of three safe spaces in west London.

It's hoped the locations can provide more appropriate advice than hospitals.

Anyone needing to talk can contact Samaritans anytime on 116 123.
