Isle of Anglesey County Council's mental health service is called Llesiant Meddwl Môn.
Llesiant Meddwl Môn supports you if you are having difficulties with your mental health, because of social factors.
Llesiant Meddwl Môn is a social work-led service. The service provides support and social care services if you need support with your mental health.
The team puts you and your carer at the centre of the support. This works towards a positive and recovery-led approach to serious mental illness.
Community Mental Health Team
Llesiant Meddwl Môn works closely with Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board’s Community Mental Health Team. This makes sure that there is a connected, joined-up approach to meeting your assessed needs. You may hear this being described as a 'holistic' approach to care.
This may mean targeted support from both teams. Llesiant Meddwl Môn leads on social issues and the Community Mental Health Team leads on health needs, such as medication management.
Who we support
- Adults over 18 years old.
- People who are an ordinary resident of Anglesey.
- People who have a substantial mental health need impacting on their day-to-day outcomes.
- People who are eligible for 117 aftercare.
What we provide
- Information, advice and assistance on social care for people with mental health challenges. This can include guidance and signposting to useful organisations that can give you additional support.
- Assessment of mental health needs by a dedicated team of social workers to identify targeted support.
- Personal support services to help people live as independently as possible.
Contacting us
Not all people who have mental health difficulties will need to be open to a specialist mental health team.
You should discuss your health with your doctor (GP) to begin with. Your GP can help you decide what kind of support you need and introduce you to the right mental health service or support.
Llesiant Meddwl Môn cannot accept requests on behalf of someone else without their consent.
