In order to help statutory and voluntary sector services to support and meet the needs of people in a mental health crisis more effectively in Manchester, a Manchester's Crisis Provider's Forum was set up. It brings together representatives from Manchester's Mental Health Home Treatment Teams (MHHTs), Greater Manchester Police, voluntary sector organsiations, A&E psychiatric liason services, and Turning Point's Crisis Point service. Through partnership working the Forum aims to undertake a mapping to get a clear view of statutory and voluntary sector crisis provision across Manchester; to develop cross-agency and shared-care working; to identify caps in crisis provision; to promote the range of crisis services available though the development of a stepped care model of mental health crisis provision; and to work collaboratively to improve outcomes.
