The Suffolk and North East Essex Integrated Care Board (SNEE ICB) would like to understand the experiences of people living with both mental health illness and substance use, also known as "dual-diagnosis".

Go to www.letstalksnee.co.uk/dual-diagnosis-improvement-survey or click on the image above to share your views.

NHS Advice and Guidance Services
NHS Suffolk and North East Essex are working alongside healthcare partners and the local population to see how we can maximise the use and effectiveness of Advice and Guidance services.
‘Advice and Guidance’ is where your GP, or other clinical member of staff, discusses with a specialist doctor, or specialist team at your local hospital, about getting the most appropriate care for you.

Suffolk Community Services
The current Suffolk (excluding Waveney) Community Service concludes at the end of September 2027.
The future community service will not promise to solve all problems, or cure all illnesses, but will be a step towards shaping the future to help people stay well for longer.
We would like you and your communities’ help in designing a public engagement and co-production on the key themes, principles and approach to the future Suffolk Community Services model.
We need to consider how we get feedback and input from people of all ages across Suffolk. We especially need to ensure we include children, teens, parents, guardians, carers and wider family networks, and those who might suffer the highest impact of health inequalities.
