About Us

To deliver brilliant care through brilliant people is our mission and people are at the heart of everything we do.

Kent and Medway NHS and Social Care Partnership Trust is a mental health Trust that provides mental health, learning disability, substance misuse and specialist services to approximately 1.8 million people across Kent and Medway. Working in partnership with Kent County Council and the unitary authority in Medway, we are commissioned by Kent and Medway Clinical Commissioning Group (previously eight local commissioning groups) and NHS Specialist Commissioning. We have an annual income of £194.6 million and employ approximately 3,500 staff who either work from home or across 66 buildings on 33 sites. We cover a vast rural and urban rich area with increasingly diverse communities which are spread across an area of 1,450 square miles.

KMPT is ambitious and innovative. The Trust is working with partner and stakeholder organisations to develop a place-based structure. It is striving to develop strong relationships with service users and their families, for example creating an Engagement Council and is putting workforce retention and development and quality improvement at the heart of everything we undertake. As well as taking the lead on locally based initiatives such as the mental health and learning disabilities collaboration, KMPT is forming collaborative arrangements with high performing NHS Trusts such as East London Foundation Trust on quality improvement. Service development, increased digitalisation and research will be key areas of focus for KMPT moving forward.
