Mental Health Support

 

BACK TO MAIN INDEX

 

Please see our FAQs if you have specific concerns regarding the coronavirus outbreak.  If you need support regarding your mental health, please contact the surgery.

The surgery is committed to developing mental health services further and we are working closely with Sussex Partnership Foundation Trust and MIND to improve services at the surgery. We are passionate about supporting our patients with their mental health and, in 2018, we won an award for pioneering mental health care.
