Welcome

Suffolk Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust provides mental health, substance misuse, learning disability and eating disorder services across Suffolk and Thetford. We operate from over 60 sites across Suffolk with Trust headquarters at St Clement’s Hospital in Ipswich.

What do we do?

Our mission is to 'help people to make the most of their lives'.

We provide:

Mental health services for adults and older people living in Suffolk (excluding Waveney and Thetford)

We aim to become one of the best health providers in the East of England and one of the top ten mental health trusts in the country.
