A Norfolk mental health helpline which has had more than 6,000 calls since January was saved from the axe this morning.


Chief executive of the Norfolk and Suffolk Foundation Trust (NSFT), Michael Scott, said the trust would fund the helpline until end of this financial year.

Mr Scott said: “The helpline is a great benefit to our service users.

“We have discussed it as a team and we have decided we will support it until the end of the financial year.”

He said the trust could embed the line into their service at very little net cost.
