New mental health website launched
Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust
Avon & Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust provides quality mental health care services across the South West
Residents in Bath and North East Somerset (BaNES), Swindon and Wiltshire (BSW) can now access a new website set up to support those experiencing stress, anxiety, low mood or depression.
The BSW Talking Therapies website is easy-to-navigate and will be the central hub for wellbeing resources, including self-help guides and advice and support. Residents will also be able to self-refer to the Talking Therapies service through the new site.
Aileen McArthur, Head of Talking Therapies said: “We often hear that getting the right type of mental health information and support is difficult so we hope the new BSW Talking Therapies site will make it much easier for people to get the help and signposting they need more quickly and conveniently.”

3 周Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust - Really not trying to be negative but why is the former Avon area excluded, it doesn't make any sense when Avon is literally in your name. I may bring this to South Glos Health Overview Scrutiny Committee as individuals in South Gloucestershire are being failed. It would be good to understand who made the decision and why. With GP and secondary care services failing the website would have been incredibly useful for individuals. As I said I'm sorry and I don't want to sound negative, I just want to understand why.
