Don’t Panic Self-Help – Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust. The Trust have developed a series of free of charge CBT based audio interventions known as Don’t Panic Self Help, available to download via an app or direct from a web platform. This has been rolled out to all GPs in Coventry and Warwickshire. Talking to GPs, and listening to feedback from patients the need was identified for an up to date solution based on CBT which has been well proven to work and that would allow anyone to gain access to support in a way that suits their lifestyle and provides a more discreet route to a variety of resources.
