About the event:

Our National Improving Mental Health Services in the Criminal Justice System Conference comes at a crucial time of key reforms to health and social care and the criminal justice system.  With a new commissioning model for offender health services and the potential roll out of liaison and diversion services by 2014, now is the time to hear key agencies speak on delivering accessible and joined up mental health services that meet the needs of offenders.

Do not miss the opportunity to hear the following key areas addressed: providing a new single operating model for the commissioning of offender health services, delivering Street Triage services and the effective use of Section 136, working with offenders with personality disorders and the role of housing in supporting offenders with mental health issues.

Expert speakers include:

·         Kate Davies, Head of Public Health, Military and Offender Health Commissioning, NHS England

·         Sean Duggan, Chief Executive, Centre for Mental Health

·         Jim Turnell, Chief Inspector, Northamptonshire Police

·         Dr Jo Ramsden, Clinical Psychologist, Leeds Personality Disorder Services, Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust
