Slough surprises people. What they imagine is a scene from The Office. What they discover is an amazingly vibrant place, with a buzzing arts scene, fantastic facilities, multinational employers and the most ethnically diverse community in Britain. Dull it is not. But of course, nothing can stop that community having its fair share of people suffering from mental health problems. At least they have the benefit of a 3-star council taking care of them, led by a dedicated Community Mental Health Team working in partnership with Berkshire Healthcare NHS Trust. This is a team that's not only highly proactive and innovative, but also sensitive to the widely varying demands of such a culturally mixed population. If you're a qualified social worker with a proven background in mental health who needs a new challenge and a more promising future, it's time to experience the Slough Effect.
