In phase 1, must: -demonstrate the technical feasibility of your proposed innovation -establish ongoing collaboration between technical and clinical members of the project team -formalise any required ethical approvals, data sharing agreements and contracts -begin working with clinical data. Bids were welcome that bring together sector specialists. The aim of this award is to develop disruptive innovative solutions that address: Challenge A - Supporting people who are not currently receiving treatment and addressing the backlog of patients on waiting lists. The themes and priority areas below are for illustrative purposes and are not exhaustive. Innovation themes: -Supported self-management. -Diagnosis and assessment. -Digital psychological interventions, e.g. formal evidence based psychological treatments / interventions; just-in-time adaptive interventions. -Information, advice and self-help (this is not about creating new interventions, rather focusing on maximising what we currently have) -Transdiagnostic processes - issues that are present across disorders e.g. sleep, rumination, social avoidance, pain. Priority Areas: -Neurodevelopmental difficulties in Children and Young People -Able Autistic Group -Post-traumatic stress disorder -People with low levels of activity and promoting exercise as an intervention. -Hard to reach populations (people with existing mental health conditions and/or people with a co-occurring condition e.g. sensory loss, alcohol, or substance issues) -Eating disorders - Low weight/ anorexia (this patient group has seen a 240% increase in referrals since routine services opened up again following the first Covid lockdown period.) -Young people and innovation in schools Challenge B - Delivering person-centred and equitable Mental Health support and services to people who are currently receiving treatment by optimising clinical and social care pathways.

This could include information, advice and self-help; and/or collection of clinical information, eg, from inventories to inform assessment/care. -Remote monitoring, including medication monitoring, collection of patient reported outcome data from digital products to help tailor care to needs of people with ongoing mental health challenges; and collection and analysis of data from multiple agencies that may indicate deteriorating mental health in adults or risk in children and young people. -Novel approaches to identify new therapeutic and technological opportunities for treatment resistant mental health problems. Priority Areas -Keeping people at home - e.g. innovation opportunities linked to the Intensive Home Treatment model -Maintaining connections with home for inpatient care Contracts have be given to successful applicants.",
