I’ve used my trust’s staff mental health hub and it was an absolute lifeline in a time of real stress. It would be a huge loss to the Trust to lose that lifeline. Please write to your MP #FundNHSHubs
Let’s help get word out about this campaign to #FundNHSHubs
Please watch, comment and share if you can.
Andrew James Picken Couldn't agree more Andrew, we'll keep campaigning for all NHS and social care staff to have this provision via our #FundNHSHubs campaign in the hopes that we can make a difference for these staff.
This is why we have joined healthcare leaders across the UK in calling for sustained, ring-fenced investment in #mentalhealth support for healthcare staff.
