Why we built this
Play North West CIC uses music to open a door to mental wellbeing for people excluded from traditional services. The app gives you the same scaffolding we use in our in-person programmes — the NHS 5 Steps to Mental Wellbeing — in a form you can carry in your pocket.
All crisis features are free, forever. The Premium tier funds our free community workshops in Merseyside, so every paying subscriber directly supports someone who can’t pay.
