Mental health referrals in Northamptonshire have fallen dramatically during the coronavirus pandemic, leading to fears people are not getting the help they need.
The number of referrals to the NHS improving access to psychological therapies (IAPT) programme in the Northamptonshire Clinical Commissioning Group (NCCG) area dropped by 19.7 per cent last year.
The figures, published by NHS Digital, show 10,850 people were referred for treatment between February and November 2020 compared to 13,515 in the same period in 2019 – a decrease of 2,665.
