A new crisis house and safe haven to support vulnerable people will open in north Derbyshire.
Planners at North East Derbyshire District Council have approved a change of use application for a house and garage at 188 North Wingfield Road, Grassmoor.
Referrals to the crisis house will be made by Chesterfield Royal Hospital. The safe haven will receive referrals from a mental health helpline, East Midlands Ambulance Service, police and self-referral via online booking.
Both the crisis house and safe haven will be staffed every day around the clock, with a maximum of four members of staff on site at any one time.
