Transforming Community Mental Health
Derbyshire is developing a new way of working across the whole system to provide person- centred, holistic, and community-based care and support. The programme, called Living Well, will transform our work across voluntary and statutory organisations - through creating new teams, new networks, and new community support.
The Chesterfield, NE Derbyshire & Bolsover Collaboratives
We are a group comprising commissioners, providers, the statutory sector, the voluntary sector, local authority and people with lived experience of mental health - all working together on behalf of the wider system to reimagine the future of community mental health and look after the health and wellbeing of our local community. The Collaboratives are an inclusive forum where people come together to develop a shared understanding of the current mental health system. These face to face and virtual meetings will enable an opportunity to listen to local voices, share the offer and respond to local mental health
