We're delighted that our Street Triage team work with @northumbriapol has been cited as good practice in the new Mental Health Act independent review.

[Northumbria Police @northumbriapol]

We are really proud of the work we do with @NTWNHS. It is so important that officers understand the complex needs of individuals with poor mental health. Only then can we deliver an outstanding service and avoid those in crisis from being taken into police custody.

If we’re not tackling mental health problems early, then we risk failing the next generation right at the start of their lives.
