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.

Understanding the Mental Capacity Act

The Social Care Institute for Excellence is continuing to update its series of excellent videos on the website 'Social Care TV'. The series includes a couple of useful programmes on Mental Capacity, Safeguarding, and Personalisation. Of particular use to those looking to understand and interpret the MCA are the Key Points provided below each video clip.

There is also an excellent Mental Capacity Act Resource linked to the site. This provides a very clear synopsis of the Act itself.

Also in the news is 'New Horizons - A shared vision for Mental Health'. This brings together ideas for Mental Health provision for the future. Recovery, Wellbeing and Personalisation are featured heavily.
