What is Mental Health Together +?
In Kent and Medway, the community mental health transformation has created a new service model called Mental Health Together.
It is a multi-agency offer, which means bringing all the services and agencies that support people with varying mental health needs much closer together. This ensures that people get the right care, without having to navigate service boundaries and without repeatedly telling their story.
Mental Health Together will introduce new roles as part of a new, joined-up model of care that bridges the current gap between primary care (i.e., GPs) and community mental health (i.e., KMPT). It will treat people with complex mental health needs by:
- Providing someone with support in a person-centred, holistic way
- Removing barriers to access, and thresholds across services, working together
- Involving service users and carers as equal partners in their care
- Building in involvement and co-production at all levels of service design and delivery
- Delivering needs-led and personalised trauma-informed care.

We are Kent and Medway Mental Health NHS Trust. We care for the mental health and wellbeing of people across Kent and Medway and are rated 'Good' by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
Our teams support children, young people and adults with a wide range of mental health needs. We also provide specialist services, including all-age eating disorder services and neurodevelopmental assessments for children and young people, such as autism and ADHD.
Because we work across the whole county and across hospital and community settings, we can make care more joined up and easier to access for the people we serve.
Our vision is simple: we are here to help communities not just live with mental illness, but live well. It's why we're passionate about working with communities to make mental health care better for everyone. Everything we do is guided by our values: caring, inclusive, curious and confident.
Join us if you share our passion for better mental health care and want to be part of a team that's working well together.
