Our community engagement team works closely with clinical staff and community groups to ensure local people are consulted and involved in developments or changes to services provided by the Trust.
The team also undertakes a significant amount of work with local communities to tackle the stigma associated with mental health, and to reduce the barriers to getting the right help at the right time.
The team is always very keen to hear from individuals and community groups with suggestions on how the Trust can better engage with local communities, and support them in taking more responsibility for their own wellbeing.
The team are located at the Head Office, Trust Headquarters, 52 Queensbridge Road, Moseley, Birmingham. B13 8QY.
The team can be contacted on 0121 301 1060 and at bsmhft.communityengagement@nhs.net
