All our work

UCLPartners has helped to develop a best practice assessment framework to support people experiencing a mental health crisis during the pandemic.

The Mental Health Safety Improvement Programme (MHSIP) is a national programme aimed at improving the safety and outcomes of mental health care by reducing unwarranted variation and providing a high-quality healthcare experience for all people across the system by March 2024.

We are committed to improving health and care in mental health and deliver evidence-based solutions to address these pressing healthcare challenges for our population.

We are working with partners to organise and support the Physical Health Leads Network to reduce the mental health mortality gap.

In partnership with Care City, UCL, the National Collaborating Centre for Mental Health (NCCMH) and local mental health trusts, we are developing and piloting the effectiveness of an evidence-based competence framework and training curriculum for peer support workers, to improve the implementation of this role across the mental health system.

Approximately one in four people will experience a mental health problem each year. We work with our partners and patients to deliver sustainable impact in mental health care.

Children and young people who are referred to Child and Adolescent Mental Health services can face an 18 month wait for initial assessment. During this period, there is no guarantee of support from health services. This programme will provide materials and training to enable GPs to signpost young people to digital support services whilst they await CAMHS care.

i-THRIVE supports care providers to implement the THRIVE framework - an integrated, person-centred, and needs-led approach to delivering mental health services for children, young people and their families.

We are supporting Imperial College Health Partners to coordinate a Greater London Authority scheme to help rough sleepers with mental health needs.
