Description

Bury Council is seeking to appoint a specialist provider with appropriate skills and experience to provide Independent Mental Health Advocacy (IMHA) to people in hospital. The need for this service has arisen due to a change in policy at the Cygnet Bury hospital.

Cygnet Bury refers patients to the Bury Council commissioned Bury Advocacy Hub for support, the service is delivered by NCompass. Cygnet Bury has several adult patients who are deaf and therefore an IMHA service is required to provide appropriate support to these people. The service is for people aged 18+.
