Please note that the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust is a specialist mental health Trust, and not a hospital.  We provide outpatient, and mainly psychological, services via talking therapies as well as Education and Training Programmes and Research.

We do not employ public relations staff per se, so we have changed “public relations” to “marketing”, as we employ marketing staff  for our Education and Training Department courses.  These marketing numbers are reflected in the table below and align with the Trust’s activities and services.
