Recommendation 24

24

Prioritise alliance models embedding VCFSE organisations in community mental health service design and delivery.

Recommendation
NHS England and Integrated Care Boards should prioritise the development of alliance models that embed voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise (VCFSE) organisations in the design and delivery of community mental health services. This should include clear expectations for co- production from the outset and mechanisms to ensure smaller and peer- led organisations are actively included in decision-making and funding arrangements.
