REGULARISATION OF HAMMERSMITH & FULHAM’S CHILD AND ADOLESCENT MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES CONTRACTS

Hammersmith and Fulham’s Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) provide multi-disciplinary assessment, and therapeutic and psychopharmacological interventions for children and young people up to the age of 18 years. As a result of the move toward sovereign borough arrangements in 2018, and the dissolution of Section 75 arrangements, contracts funded by the Local Authority have become the responsibility of the Local Authority, while others remained joint Local Authority / CCG contracts. We are therefore now working to regularise Hammersmith & Fulham Council’s position regarding those contracts for which it has retained funding and responsibility, whether on a joint or sole basis.
