On the fifth anniversary of the IAPT BAME Positive Practice Guide, I am pleased to see this guest Editorial by @jsbamrah @DrHNaqvi and Sam Rodger of @NHS_RHO.
The review by the Observatory calls for funding to enable the full implementation of the Guide. Long overdue!

Data shows some ethnic minority communities accessing IAPT/ NHS Talking Therapies continue to have poorer recovery rates.
Please look at your local data and use the IAPT BAME Positive Practice Guide to help improve recovery rates for all communities.
