We know getting mental health care and support isn’t always easy. Processes can be long and complicated and demand on services can mean people sometimes having to wait too long without the help or support they need.
Change is happening though in the form of the community mental health transformation programme. This is a five-year national programme to improve the lives of people with serious mental illness and the way they’re supported in their local communities.
Everyone who is involved in caring for people has a role to play.
That’s why health and social care, local authorities, emergency services, voluntary sector organisations and people with lived experience of mental ill health across Tees Valley are working together to make change happen.
Together we will make the changes that are right for local people and with local people.
