A vision for mental health, autism and learning disability services in ten years' time, for people of all ages in England
Key points
- Mental health, autism and learning disability services need to change. This report sets out a vision for what these services should look like in ten years' time, for people of all ages in England.
- Commissioned by the NHS Confederation and written by Centre for Mental Health, the report brings together research and engagement with a wide range of stakeholders, as well as people who bring personal and professional experience about what these vital services should be like in 2032.
- It identifies ten interconnecting themes that underpin the vision and three key requirements that would turn the vision into reality.
- While there have been many vision statements for mental health, autism and learning disability services over the years, few are ever realised in practice. This report explores what might help and what could hinder the vision, calling for action on funding, workforce and reform to enable faster access to care.
- As the case studies featured in this report show, every element of the vision is already a reality somewhere in England. The ambition is to see it realised everywhere.
- By making the changes outlined here and investing in the vision, people's lives can be improved immeasurably.
