Consultation purpose

When people are stressed, anxious or depressed they don’t feel at their best.

Now for the first time ever, there is going to be a local strategy for promoting mental health and wellbeing. This will make sure people in Kent and Medway with mental health needs get the care they need. This local strategy is called "Live it Well".

It has been written by health and social care professionals, alongside the people who use the services and their carers. It includes a vision for a mental health system that promotes:

• a positive approach to mental health and wellbeing
• intervening early
• providing personal care
• focus on helping people recover.
