New Horizons Mental Health Policy

This document forms a crucial part of the consultation on a new cross-government vision for mental health and well-being in England for 2010 onwards a consultation that began in late 2007. While it describes some clear principles and ideas that have emerged during those discussions, it is not a complete and final text. There are a number of important questions still to be resolved and the response to those and the rest of our proposals will have a strong influence on the final version. All the aspirations expressed in New Horizons should be seen in the context of the financial constraints that the Department of Health and the National Health Service will face over the next three to five years.
