Park House relocation transport update

As readers of this blog may know, Manchester Mental Health and Social Care Trust is in the process of relocating psychiatric inpatient services from Edale House at the Central Manchester Hospital (MRI) site to Park House at North Manchester General Hospital.

We've always been concerned about the impact that this move will have on carers and service users in terms of increased transport times. A representative from the Trust came to our meeting last month to update us on plans for transport and the Trust's latest newsletter contains the following update on the service user and carer transport sub-group:


"The group last met on 6 February and it was decided that another visitor questionnaire should be undertaken to make sure that we make the right  decisions about transport.  It was also agreed that more engagement and       communication with service users is necessary and  the service users and carers who attend the meetings will support this.  For more information on the Transport Work contact Lynn Campbell on 0161 277 1237 or e-mail lynn.campbell@mhsc.nhs.uk."


We'll keep you updated if we hear any more news.

Every man with a truck is not professional. The removal company has to be well know by their removals services.

Take the time to relax - have a bath, listen to calming music, exercise such as yoga and read a good book or watch a nice film, and don't worry about anyone else" "To keep active which helps mental health well being" "Self help for me is to stay focused on good things that make you feel happy such as going shopping, going to art galleries and keeping active" "Pamper yourself, it's very rewarding" "Do things for yourself -...

Rethink Mental Illness national campaign success

Over 1,000 Rethink Mental Illness campaigners have helped take a step closer to achieving clearer information about local council spending. Because of the Rethink Mental Illness 'Show us the Money' campaign, the government has agreed to look into how council budgets can be more accessible and easier to understand. Rethink Mental Illness has been invited to take part in this work, which means we can have a key role in addressing this issue.
