To help us deliver the very best care to the people we support, we’ve outlined a vision of what that looks like, and how we’re going to achieve it.

Our vision and strategy ensure that we always know what direction we’re moving in and how we’re going to measure success.

Our vision is to improve the mental, physical and social wellbeing of the people in our communities.

We will do this by:

• Working with and advocating for the local population
• Refocusing our services towards prevention and early intervention
• Continuous improvement of our services
• Locating services as close to peoples’ homes as we can
• Developing a confident and skilled workforce
• Ensuring excellent and sustainable services

In 2021, our Board of Directors approved the strategic direction for the Trust for 2021 to 2025.

Our vision and strategic aims will be delivered through four strategic priorities:

• COVID-19 - recovering effectively
• Care Quality Commission (CQC) - getting back to good
• Transformation - changing things that will make a difference
• Partnerships - working together to have a bigger impact

Engaging with service users and carers is at the heart of everything we do. As we implement our strategy the experiences and views of service users, and those of their carers, will inform any changes we make.
