S75 agreement

This agreement contributes to the improvement in mental health and wellbeing and results in easier access to a more responsive mental health service. The S.75 agreement between Brighton and Hove City Council and Sussex Partnership Foundation Trust has been in place for many years and has meant several Social Care staff have been co-located within the Trust to deliver statutory duties.
