The Hub provides integrated care to adults presenting with a broad range of mental health issues, drawn from a culturally and socio-economically diverse population.

The model of care is designed on a concept of movement and journey through services, promoting fluidity between primary care and secondary care and with local third sector and voluntary organisations that will support people in their journey to Recovery.
