What is the Directory of Mental Health and Learning Disbilities Services?
The Directory of Mental Health and Learning Disabilities Services is a handy, easy-to-use and accurate contact book for anyone in mental health or learning disabilities.

Developed to meet the needs of commissioners and practitioners in the UK’s mental health and learning disabilities services, the directory provides essential contact details for referrals, transfers or discharges. This unique reference book will put you directly in touch with psychiatrists, clinics and mental health community teams across the UK.

Do you need to liaise with other teams?
The Directory will prove invaluable in the coming year.  With information that is clearly laid out it has a level of relevant detail that is difficult to find by even the most sophisticated internet search engines!  With a comprehensive index of towns and villages, that link to the appropriate Trusts, PCTs, LHBs and CHPs (depending on the country) it will make sure you are able to find the teams you need to liaise with quickly and easily.
