Welcome to the HUBBlog!

The 'HUBBlog' is the online 'newspaper' for HUBB Mental Health. We want to keep you updated with what we 'Hubbites' are up to as well as any information that we believe will be of use to anyone involved in Mental Health, Wellbeing, Recovery and related services.

HUBB is not just about 'recovery' and support for those dealing with mental ill health. We are passionate about prevention. Programmes like Mental Health First Aid are particularly appropriate for business - especially in the current economic and social cliamte. Helping spot the signs and symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression and implementing strategies to promote a mentally and emotionally resiliant workforce and society will be vital for all our futures.

Further information can be found on the
HUBB Website.

Please comment and contribute! We look forward to hearing from you.

HUBB Website Update

The HUBB Website is being updated.

We now have a page that provides access to useful Capacity Assessment downloads for Havering and Barking and Dagenham. On the same page are Safeguard Alert forms for these two London Boroughs.

The website gives an overview of HUBB Advocacy Services, including Independent Mental Capacity Advocates (IMCA) and Independent Mental Health Advocates (IMHA). The Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DOLS) page outlines this element of the Mental Capacity Act and provides information on the training HUBB provides.

'Personalisation' is starting to make its presence felt in and around services for Mental Health. Advocacy will form an important part of this process. Although in its embryonic stage we are developing a Personalisation section to the website.

HUBB's Training & Development department is in demand. In the last month we have been running Mental Health First Aid courses, DOLS training, Recovery Star programmes, amongst others.

2010 looks like being a busy year!
