Lewisham Community Mental Health Centre Pilot Evaluation

This study seeks to understand how a new way of running a community mental health centre (CMHC) in Lewisham works and how it affects the wider mental health system in Lewisham, such as the emergency department and inpatient mental health wards. To achieve this, the project will use CRIS data to compare new CMHC users with matched controls to assess the impact of the centre on routinely collected outcomes, service use, and associated costs.
