The Birmingham Mental Health & Wellbeing Hubs is a service delivered in partnership by Birmingham Mind and Creative Support. The service supports adults over the age of 18, under secondary mental health services in Birmingham or Solihull, on GP SMI list or having long term/severe mental health problems.

Through a tiered model of support, we offer a combination of Structured Recovery Courses & Therapeutic Activities. This is complemented by 1-to-1 support planning and personalised goal setting, to assist you on your mental health recovery journey.
