Community mental health service user survey

We want to hear about your experience of community mental health services across the whole of Essex. The feedback you share will support us in devising a new service for Essex, that is informed by lived experience.

We want feedback from individuals who have used, or supported someone using, any of the community mental health services listed below.

• NHS Talking Therapies (previously IAPT)
• Recovery College
• Healthy Minds (Previously known as Wellbeing Hubs, Happy Hubs, 18-25s, and Positive Pathways services)
• Depression & Wellbeing Calls
• Individual Placement & Support (IPS)
• Mental Health Practitioners in GP Practices – Core Services
• Physical Health Checks for Severe Mental Illness (SMI)

This survey will run until mid-February and will close at 5pm on Wednesday 18th February 2026. It is being hosted by NHS Mid and South Essex on behalf of the three ICBs that currently cover the county of Essex.
