The Reducing Restrictive Practice (RRP) collaborative is part of a wider Mental Health Safety Improvement Programme (MHSIP) which was established by NHS Improvement (NHSI) in partnership with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in response to a request made by the Secretary of State. The aim of the RRP is to reduce restrictive practice (measured by number of restraints, seclusions and rapid tranquilisations) by 33% in the wards that are selected to take part. In order to meet this aim, the programme will work to:

• Design the programme in collaboration with experts and experts by experience
• Provide tools and resources for selected wards to develop their own quality improvement plans
• Support wards to carry out quality improvement through bimonthly learning days and dedicated Quality Improvement Coaches

The hugely inspirational story of ‘Stranger on the Bridge’ is now available as a play that is uniquely cast and crew completely by a team who have all experienced issues of mental health – whether personally or through caring for a loved one. The aim of the play is to provide a fresh and immersive exploration of mental health, giving an insight into what it is like to hear voices and by doing so continue to challenge stigmas around mental illness and encourage people to feel able to speak openly about this subject matter. 

The play is coming to The Tobacco Factory in Bristol from 14-18th May. You can see more about it including how to purchase tickets at here – https://www.tobaccofactorytheatres.com/shows/the-stranger-on-the-bridge/.

It is also coming to Salisbury Playhouse from 2-4th May. https://www.wiltshirecreative.co.uk/whats-on/the-salberg/the-stranger-on-the-bridge/
