Do you need to talk?
Sometimes we need a helping hand
Metlink cares about the people in our region and supports the wellbeing of you, your whānau and our communities. Sometimes, we need a helping hand to look after our mental health.
Where to go for help
Talk with someone you trust. A great place to start is your doctor or a health professional, kaumātua, whānau, a friend or counsellor. If you need other support, consider contacting New Zealand’s national mental health and addictions helpline, ‘1737, need to talk?’
