Exploring the territory• Four major reports about mental health and

employment we are aiming to support easy navigation to a wide range of resources to help you deliver services in your locality.

• Here are some of them: total place http://

www.localleadership.gov.uk/totalplace/; and the oneplace http://

oneplace.direct.gov.uk/Pages/default.aspx• We do not intend to replicate other resources but to

act as a starting place to help you find your own solutions which fit your particular mosaic of services.


www.mhfaengland.org.uk• Will be launching a

new and interactive website in mid April 2010.

• The Independent research commissioned by Wiltshire County Council is due for publication at the same time


MHFA - appears in the new employment reports.

• Mental Health First Aid is part of the training options in the open your mind campaign

• We await the outcomes of the emotional wellbeing and resilience bids to further work on this throughout our region


Why place matters• IAPT and

employment support networks are a rich and diverse tapestry across our regional geographies

• Total place and one place, alongside a raft of inequalities reports all paint this picture


Health inequalities

There has been a range of these published recently

• http://www.scmh.org.uk

• Sustainable Development Commission

• European Year for Combating Poverty and Social Exclusion

• Marmot Review - the conceptual framework from this is on the next slide



Marmot review and beyond• Employment- the maths of it.

Understanding the complexities of this will need to be at a local level, if impacts are to be made.

• Data- we know is poor and we can only get better ate gathering and using it.

• IAPT and PSA 16 data will inform local action over the coming year, as we share the results from both data gathering exercises.
