Check out our blog which is our reflections on the recent evaluation of the policy of Right Care Right Person - still a lack of evidence about impact on mental health and ambulance service especially given the under resourcing of health and social care

Access to green space is such an important factor in health and well-being, we all know this from our lived and living experience, and it is time to incorporate it into our models of addiction and mental health disorders. Glad to see this work! Bravo!
