The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if his Department will roll out Community Mental Health Hubs across the country.

Answered by Stephen Kinnock

NHS England is currently piloting a new way of supporting people experiencing mental ill health, through neighbourhood based, open access community mental health centres, in six sites across the country. An external evaluation of these pilot sites will inform any future decision to roll these centres out in other parts of the country.

We will also roll out Young Futures hubs in every community, providing open access mental health support for children and young people in every community.
