A raft of new mental health centres are to open in libraries, banks and other high street locations across England to get people “support earlier closer to home”, the Government has announced. Officials also announced that more people in a mental health crisis will be given specialist care in dedicated mental health emergency departments, rather than waiting in busy A&Es. Prime Minister Andy Burnham said that the new centres will be a “lifeline” for the thousands of people who are waiting “months” for help. Speaking with Former Senior Military Intelligence Officer Philip Ingram MBE, Talk's Julia Hartley-Brewer says: "I don't know where the staffing's coming from, or the funding!" #mentalhealth #nhs #juliahartleybrewer #talk Have you got a story?
