This conference was a timely opportunity for stakeholders to discuss the priorities for mental health provision in Scotland moving forward.
It was an opportunity to discuss examine issues for the full progress review of the Mental Health Strategy 2017-2027 and the suicide prevention strategy which was due to be published later in the year - as well as The COVID Recovery Strategy: For a fairer future and the Mental Health Recovery and Renewal Fund.
Delegates considered priorities for delivering safe and effective mental health provision, looking at what is needed in terms of suicide prevention and the vision for child mental health services moving forward. The seminar also considered priorities for the sector’s recovery from the pandemic and support for front line staff.
We are pleased to have been able to include keynote contributions from Ruth Glassborow, Director of Improvement, Healthcare Improvement Scotland; Rose Fitzpatrick, Chair, National Suicide Prevention Leadership Group (NSPLG); and Professor Andrew Gumley, Professor of Psychological Therapy, Mental Health and Wellbeing, University of Glasgow; and Interim Mental Health Network Director and Research Champion, NHS Research Scotland.
The discussion brought together stakeholders with key policy officials who attended from The Scottish Government; the DHSC; Audit Scotland; and the OSR - as well as parliamentary pass-holders from The Scottish Parliament.
