Freedom of Information request Occupational Therapists in Mental Health Liaison Team

Response published: 2 April 2025

FOI Request

We are trying to expand our network and reach out to practitioners who are not aware of this professional network. I am reaching out to different trusts to ask if there are any mental health liaison practitioners in your trusts that are Occupational Therapists? If so, would it be feasible to share this email/my details with them, or, would you be able to respond to my email with how many Occupational Therapists you have within your mental health liaison teams if any and contact details for their teams?
