In this episode we are joined by Inspector Karl Secker who talks about the force’s work to support those in a mental health crisis through the use of a mental health car. Historically police were heavily reliant on the use of emergency powers through section 136 of the Mental Health Act to provide support to those in a mental health crisis. Now thanks to the force’s mental health car those in crisis are getting the expert care they need thanks to joint working with health colleagues. Karl explains more about the initiative.
