Our blog

In last week’s Board Development Meeting we reflected carefully on the findings of last month’s CQC reports. While it was positive to read about areas of progress, some of the feedback was challenging and shone a light on where we must do better for our patients, carers, the communities we serve and for our staff. We take the CQC’s findings extremely seriously and believe it gives us a real opportunity to reflect, learn and strengthen how we lead the organisation.

On Wednesday 25 February, Professor Carmine Pariante launched Maudsley Talks, a new lecture series designed to showcase world-leading insight, research, and clinical practice.  

We’re hitting the streets! As part of our Strategy Refresh, we’re bringing the conversation directly to our communities to ensure their voices shape our priorities for the next five years.

Feeling low, anxious or overwhelmed is something many people experience – and help is available if you’re struggling to cope . NHS Talking Therapies offer free, effective psychological treatments for adults in England experiencing common mental health problems such as depression, anxiety, social anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, PTSD and specific phobias.   

The theme for this year's Eating Disorder Awareness week is Community, looking at the power of support systems for individuals struggling with an eating disorder. 

To best understand how families and communities can support, we spoke with Danilen Nursigadoo, Senior Family and Systemic Psychotherapist, who works in our Eating Disorders Day Services and Outpatients.
