    The post sits within Jameson Division in CNWL, which holds mental health services within the inner London boroughs of Westminster and Kensington & Chelsea and the outer boroughs of Brent and Harrow.

    Westminster adult mental health service provides a range of mental health services for adults across the age range within the community and in hospital settings. These are integrated health and social care services. Many services across the Boroughs of Westminster and Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea are now integrated because of the synergies of the two patches, with members of the senior management often having overarching responsibilities.

    Community services in Westminster are evolving in line with the NHSE Long Term Plan. Most of the service is commissioned by Central London CCG and that part of community mental health services has undergone a transformation program and been redesigned as an integrated care partnership around the four Primary Care Networks (PCN) in the patch. Two mental health hubs provide an overarching structure in the North and the South of the borough respectively, within which there are functional groupings serving each PCN. The hubs' provision is all-inclusive - serving the whole continuum of mental health problems and containing within a single structure a wide range of professionals (see organogram below). In the North hub the two functional units are Regent's Health PCN team and St John's Wood PCN team
