Urgent needs need urgent support
"Urgent care is early intervention. We know that the sooner someone receives professional help for their mental health the better the outcome. We bring that theory to life at Icarus. We respond quickly, professionally and compassionately." Sarah Jones, Icarus Clinical Director

Icarus was formed in response to a need for more immediate and effective support.

“We know in the armed forces we don't leave a man behind do we? We don't leave a man down. And it's the same at Icarus. All three services and all arms are represented here. It just goes to show we are one brotherhood and one sisterhood and we are all still here for each other. ”
