Mental Health Services in Newham

It is estimated that one in four people have mental health problems at any one time of varying levels of severity. Their family Doctor or General Practitioner can treat most people, but more serious conditions such as schizophrenia may need the input of the specialist mental health service. Mental health services in Newham combine resources from the Council and the East London and City Mental Health Trust.
