Unfortunately we are up to 3 sec136 at the moment with another on the way.MH demand is certainly on the way with Lockdown being lifted.From speaking with MH colleagues we have people who have not sought help/support for sometime who are suffering poor MH.

We are now at four sec136 which means we have 8 Police Officers at BVH,still the concern logs are coming in.This is certainly the busiest night I have known for MH and I hope this is not a sign of things to come.Bedspace is at a premium meaning the sec 136 are getting longer

Currently there are no sec 136 suites available in Lancs until tomorrow due to demand and we are all having to go through A&E.I have been speaking with bed management and know they are all trying their best.Demand is just large tonight.PSYNERGY will be vital tonight!👍

Great support from MHLT working through the sec 136 we have and we are just about to return one home after assessment.Unfortunately,we have a report coming in of a person threatening to SH at an unknown location.We have to try and find them to offer them the support they need.

Great to start the day Lancashire & South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust newly opened Blackpool Mental Health Assessment Unut 👍with Mark Worthington & Emma McGuigan
