Roger Williams MP, Norman Lamb MP and Val Walker, Service Director of Brecon & District Mind Last Thursday Brecon and District Mind hosted an Open Forum on Mental Health with Norman Lamb MP – Minister of State for Care and Support . The session was facilitated by Roger Williams MP for Brecon & Radnorshire . During the hour-long session many important issues were covered, including changing the health system to put mental health on a parity with physical health, the failings of the system for children and young people, concern around funding for vital third sector services in the community such as Brecon Mind, and the needs of carers. Norman’s talk was followed by a Q&A session with Brecon Mind members. There is not space to cover the entirety of the Open Forum here in one blog post, so we have highlighted some of the points that Norman made during his visit.  Disparity between services for mental and physical health I wanted to say something briefly about my complete p...

Over the last few months I seem to have read endless articles online (the latest just last week from the BBC here ) about the increasing numbers of young people and adults being detained in police cells whilst experiencing mental distress. This is often because there are no suitable places of safety where people can be taken to be assessed, even though it is frequently accepted that a police custody suite is not usually an appropriate place in such circumstances. In Powys, a multi-agency approach is now working to improve the police response to those with mental health needs. I first found out about this in November 2013 at a Dyfed Powys Police event called Mental Health: the Way Forward . Here we heard, amongst other things, some of the Force’s plans for change in the area of detention under Section 136 of the Mental Health Act. Inspector Brian Jones This week we found out more, from Inspector Brian Jones of Neighbourhood Development  for Dyfed-Powys Police, about how plans had ...

Jane Cooke of our mental health team recently supported the organisation of a meeting in Llandrindod Wells to look at the long waiting lists for psychological therapies in Mid and South Powys. She reports now on what happened on the day. The Psychology Services in Mid and South Powys have very long waiting lists. There are also waiting lists, but not so long, to see a counsellor based at GP surgeries. (Psychology Services in Mid and South Powys are provide by Aneurin Bevan Health Board and in the North of Powys are provided by Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board ). In response to this the Psychology Services, some counsellors who work in GP practices, Powys Association of Voluntary Organisations (PAVO) , people on the waiting lists and Public Health Wales worked together to plan and put on an event to talk with people who are on the waiting lists. Around 30 people who are waiting for psychology services or counselling came on the 3rd February to a meeting in Llandrindod Wells...

One to one support is available, free.  We met Tim Skelcher last week to find out more about a new service being offered by Mid Powys Mind. I’ve recently started working for Mid Powys Mind as a Recovery Support Worker. This is a three year Big Lottery funded service which will work in person centred and holistic ways to address an increased demand for support following the economic downturn and the austerity measures that followed.
