Leeds Survivor-Led Crisis Service (LSLCS) is a mental health crisis support service run by people with lived experience of mental health issues. They provide out-of-hours peer support to people in acute mental health crisis, with the aim of reducing hospital admissions and use of statutory services…
LSLCS was founded in 1999 by a group of campaigning mental health service users who wanted a non-medical, non-diagnostic approach to crisis support outside of a clinical environment. They operate from Dial House in East Leeds, providing compassionate, person-centred support including a Connect Helpline, Teen Connect, Deaf Connect, and groupwork services.
