Biggleswade community mental health teams are undergoing a process of transformation/ redesign in order to focus on providing prompt assessment and intervention at the point of need. By separating out some of the functions of a traditional CMHT, the new structure will additionally allow more of a focus on recovery for those with enduring mental health problems and those accessing CPA.

Over the coming years, Community Mental Health services nationally are receiving an enhancement of funding. Community mental healthcare will increasingly be provided closer to home, within primary care networks.
Biggleswade CMHT is in the process of transformation and moving towards the following structure:

• Front-end blended teams with triage function and providing care for complex patients not on CPA.
• Managing recovery-focused care of individuals on CPA.
