Mental Health Network

Mental Health Network

Mental Health is important to all of us and is recognised as a district priority within our North WestLeicestershire Community Health and Wellbeing Plan. 

We have created a Mental Health Network; a team of partners and organisations with the shared drive to come together to support North West Leicestershire's Mental Health.
