NELFT’s Memory Service in Waltham Forest has received an accolade from the Royal College of Psychiatrists. The service has been awarded a Sustainable Mental Health Service Commendation.

London Borough of Barnet (LBB) and NHS Barnet Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) have appointed NELFT as the new provider to run Barnet’s Children’s Integrated Therapies Service. From 1 September 2018, NELFT will provide Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy and Speech and Language Therapy under a Children’s Integrated Therapy service, resulting in one provider delivering all three services.

To commemorate the NHS at 70 anniversary, NELFT is undertaking a series of talks across the year aimed at providing the public at large, staff and partners with an in-depth look at various topics.

The annual event in Romford for Mental Health Awareness Week was a huge success. With near-perfect weather, the crowds in Romford Market were bigger than normal and NELFT staff were busy talking to the public who were happy to stop and speak to services from across Havering.

NELFT hosted another edition of the annual event at CEME Centre in Rainham on Wednesday 9 May to mark International Nurses’ Day. International Nurses’ Day was on Saturday 12 May and is an annual awareness day aimed at celebrating the contributions nurses make to society.
