Community Mental Health Services are undergoing widespread, innovative transformation and investment over the next two years. North London Foundation Trust are at the forefront of this transformation, developing a more holistic, recovery oriented, biopsychosocial approach to support people with their mental health, in partnership with primary care, other community NHS providers and the voluntary sector. The aim is to build support systems that reach the whole mental health population with a focus on prevention and sustained recovery delivered by multi-agency collaboration. Each population unit is based on the footprint of Primary Care Networks, bringing together NHS, voluntary sector, peer support and community organisations. These relationships will be central to the new community mental health model.

The Lead Practitioner will work with the Pathway Lead in ensuring the development and maintenance of high-quality care and support, based on a local community model which is person centred and holistic.  The Lead Practitioner will bring their extensive knowledge and experience working with service users to their individual work and in supporting supervisees and the wider culture of the team.
