Lewisham:  Reimagining  Mental Health Services for Black Communities

South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust

Join us to achieve anti-racism and equity in South London and Maudsley mental health services.

CALLING BLACK COMMUNITIES IN LEWISHAM!What is it about?The Patient and Carer Race Equality Framework (PCREF) is a new way of working which brings together Black communities, Black service users and their carers with SLaM staff. Together we will re-imagine mental health services to achieve anti-racism and equity for Black citizens. Data shows that diverse communities have poorer Access, Experience and Outcomes (AEO) in mental health services – this is true of SLaM and national data. In this first iteration of PCREF, we are focusing on improving AEO for Black African, Black Caribbean and Black Other (including Mixed) communities. This is because SLaM data shows that these groups are most disadvantaged in our care. How do I get involved?We have a two-part event coming up in your Borough and we warmly invite you to join us on this journey. Part 1: Fit for Partnership briefing session This event is for Black communities in Lewisham.Date: Tuesday 2 February 2021Time: 6pm - 8pmPart 2: Lewisham PCREF borough event This event is with staff, Black community members, Black service users and their carers.
