CAMHS Contracts 2026

The Local Authority and the Integrated Care Board (ICB) fund West London Trust for delivery of Community Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services and Intensive Therapeutic Behavioural Support Services, with governance for the Local Authority funding contribution to the end of FY 2025/26. This paper proposes formalising the Local Authority’s contribution through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with NWL ICB to unify contracting arrangements from FY 2026/27. This approach aligns with similar arrangements with the ICB for Speech and Language Services.
