Everton in the Community is to build a brand new mental health facility, after planning was approved by Liverpool City Council.

The People鈥檚 Place is being purpose-built to provide an extensive range of activities to improve mental health and promote suicide prevention.

The organisation say there's more need than ever for a place like this, as the after-effects of Covid and the numerous lockdowns have increased many of the associated risk factors for poor mental health and suicide.

Mike Salla is Director of Health and Sport at Everton in the Community.
