Description

The council is reviewing the MHRN, which was developed as part of the vision for delivering the 'Community Resilience' priority area of the NHS Camden Local Care Strategy (LCS) and the Five Year Forward View for Mental Health and our Camden 2025 Plan. Camden's Mental Health Integrated Care Partnership (ICP), which includes statutory as well as Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) providers, has also identified community mental health a priority within the Community Mental Health Framework. A strategic framework for the development of mental health services that includes the development of a single pathway of services as part of an integrated, partnership model.

The MHRN is made up of VCS organisations that work in partnership with both Camden and Islington and the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trusts. The services included in this network provide community-based support to people with common mental health issues, as well as people with Serious Mental Illness (SMI). Common objectives across the services are to intervene early, with preventative support, to raise public awareness and to reduce the stigma associated with mental ill health
Contracts for the MHRN are due to end March 2022, and there are seven (7) services provided by four (4) VCS organisations who are within scope for this re- commissioning.
