Taking into account the feedback from public consultations in 2015 and the clinical case for change, the plans for a £160 million modernisation of mental health services in south west London have been approved.
These modernisation plans will completely transform mental health services in south west London. They will create two state of the art centres of excellence for mental health services in Springfield University Hospital and Tolworth Hospital, ensuring that vulnerable people in the area have access to some of the best services in the country.
These two centres will be completely paid for with a £160 million investment from the sale of surplus land mainly on the current Springfield University Hospital site. This investment will add to the CCG commitment to invest a further £20 million into community mental health services in the area.
