‘Step up to Great’ Mental Health

‘Step up to Great’ Mental Health services in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland

The local NHS are investing in and improving the way adult mental health care is delivered across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland – and the public is being urged to have their say.

 A public consultation launched on – Monday 24 May. Everyone is asked to get involved and help shape future services.

 “The Covid-19 pandemic meant we had to quickly change how we worked – introducing temporary measures – to keep service users safe while continuing their care.

 We want to know what people think about the proposed improvements we’ve made during the pandemic and whether we should make them permanent.  We also want to talk to people about other plans to improve mental health services.”

 Mental health heavily influences our whole health and wellbeing. Now more than ever before it makes sense that mental health, just like physical health, is taken care of and maintained. To do this the NHS locally is investing more in local services to dramatically improve urgent and community care and treatment to improve people’s lives.

The consultation runs until Sunday 15 August 2021. The CCGs want to know what people think about the proposals to improve mental health care.
