Description

Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust (AWP) provides mental health services across Bath and North East Somerset, Bristol, North Somerset, South Gloucestershire, Swindon and Wiltshire, from more than 90 community and inpatient sites and through partnerships with external organisations. Services include acute mental health, recovery, liaison and dementia services, forensic services, Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services and a range of highly specialist mental health services. AWP is currently in segment 3 of the NHS Oversight Framework and rated Amber-Green under the Provider Capability assessment. Following a Care Quality Commission inspection in 2024, reported in May 2025, the Trust's well-led rating was 'requires improvement'. AWP operates across two financially challenged Integrated Care Systems and works with the South West Provider Collaborative for mental health services. The Board has invested in strengthening external stakeholder relationships and reviewing partnership working models. It has also experienced material membership changes since the previous well-led inspection, including a new Chair in autumn 2024 and three new Non-Executive Directors commencing in 2026. AWP now requires an independent, developmental review of leadership and governance against the Care Quality Commission well-led framework. The review will provide objective and constructive challenge, identify prioritised developmental actions and inform targeted improvement work to secure and sustain future performance.
