Fromeside Medium Secure Unit Company Information

General information

It is important for all of us to look after our mental health. We all experience better or worse mental health at different times: for some of us the extremes are greater and at any one time, one in four of us is experiencing a mental health problem.

AWP’s secure services are provided by Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust (AWP), a significant provider of mental health services across South Gloucestershire, Bristol, North Somerset, Bath & North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire as well specialist services – including secure services – for a wider catchment area.

Occasionally a severe mental health problem can contribute to someone committing a criminal offence. AWP’s secure services provide specialist treatment and care to help those people overcome their mental health problems. Eventually, many are able to return to living positively in the community.

Wickham low secure service has 29 rehabilitation-focused beds in three wards, each meeting the specific needs of vulnerable men with ongoing mental health issues who are at different stages of recovery and with different levels of independence.

Fromeside is an 80 bed medium secure service caring for people with a mental illness who also have a criminal history or have risks and behaviours that mean they cannot be treated in mainstream mental health services.

Fromeside provides both short term assessment and longer term care and we have an ethos of recovery and service user and carer involvement. We have a service for women and a range of wards for men supporting people who are acutely unwell through to those who are preparing for discharge. People returning to life in the community are supported by our community nurses who work alongside mainstream community mental health services.

FIND case manages the care of secure service users who also have a learning disability or significant cognitive difficulties and who are placed outside our area. The FIND team ensures they are placed in the best possible care and that all their needs are met.
