We are six months into 2025, and the pressures on mental health services continue to grow. From rising caseloads to increasing clinical complexity, the demand for flexible, high-quality staffing solutions is stronger than ever.
At Hunter Gatherer Mental Health, we work with NHS Trusts and private providers to supply experienced, fully vetted locum professionals who step in and deliver where it matters most.
Services are telling us they need locums who can:
- Adapt quickly to new environments
- Manage complex mental health presentations
- Collaborate effectively with stretched teams
- Provide stability during uncertain periods
Locums are not just filling gaps. They are helping to stabilise services, support continuity of care and bring fresh insight to multidisciplinary teams. From CAMHS and community mental health to inpatient and crisis services, the expectations placed on mental health professionals have never been higher.
We are responding by staying close to our clients, understanding their changing needs and ensuring every placement we make is thoughtful, compliant and impact-driven.
If you’re hiring or looking for your next mental health locum role, we’re ready to support you.
