What a year it has been for Team BSMHFT. As we near the end of 2025, we would like to reflect on the incredible achievements that our colleagues and teams have accomplished.
Over 6,000 of our colleagues continue to work incredibly hard to support the lives of our patients, service users and their loved ones.
Our 2025 highlights showcase of the dedication, innovation and compassion that drive everything we do. From improving care quality and supporting staff wellbeing to embracing digital transformation and community engagement, this year has been full of achievements that make a real difference.

Team of the Month
With more than 4,000 staff working across over 40 sites, we are very proud of the 160+ teams that are always working their hardest to support thousands of local people who need our mental health expertise.
Whether that’s getting some of our most vulnerable service users on the road to recovery, bringing fresh new ideas to enhance care or ensuring everything is in place for people to get the best possible care in the community.
Whatever the role each team plays, we want to recognise those who bring alive our values of Compassionate, Inclusive and Committed every day while they’re at work.
Our Team of the Month award aims to do just that, and we’d like to invite you to nominate the team that you feel is having an impact.
Five Minutes With
Five Minutes With… is a regular feature where we sit down with a member of staff to get to know their role and what inspired them to join the great institution that is the NHS.
During the interviews, you will learn about the person behind the role, what their hobbies are and how they look after their own mental and physical health and wellbeing. It’s also a great way of learning about the compassionate, inclusive and committed people who make up Team BSMHFT.
