South West London and St Georges Mental Health Trust is a well-established organisational 1994, providing mental health services to a local population of over 1 million people across the Boroughs of Kingston, Merton, Richmond, Sutton and Wandsworth. In general, the population of SW London is more affluent than other sectors of London and many people in the boroughs served by the Trust are highly educated and assertive in demanding the services they want. There are also pockets of deprivation, and service provision is therefore carefully attuned to the requirements of the population as a whole. The Trust’s vision is “A future in which people with mental health problems have the same opportunity as other citizens to participate in and contribute to our communities.” The Trust values are Respectful, Open, Compassionate, Collaborative and Consistent.
