"By working together, we have created a more engaging, easy to use website that has a wide range of resources that can support people living and working across Midlothian.
“The pandemic has had a huge impact on our mental health and wellbeing and with our focus this week on raising awareness around mental health it felt like the perfect time to launch this vital resource.

Alison White, head of adult and social care at Midlothian Council, said: “Midspace is a really valuable online resource for adults in Midlothian.
"Now that it has been redeveloped, we hope even more residents will take the time to explore the wealth of mental health and wellbeing supports available to them locally.”
