Professor Lade Smith to join Maudsley Talks | News

We are excited to announce our trust member has launched Maudsley Talks. Join them on 25 March when a lecture will be given by Dr Lade Smith, Clinical Director of the Forensic Services at South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust, and President of the Royal College of Psychiatry. 

Her talk is titled Breaking the cycle - could early intervention reduce psychiatric illness?

The majority of her patients are people who have suffered significant trauma and social disadvantage in childhood, too much of which was avoidable. She often finds herself thinking that if only someone had intervened when her patients were young children, then they might not have become her patient.

Dr Smith will provide an evidence-based review of how parents, professionals and all the services that support children can avoid them becoming forensic mental health patients. 

The talk will be held online from 6pm on Wednesday 25 March. You can sign up for the event here.

If you missed the previous Maudsley Lecture you can watch it back in full here.

Or listen to Professor Pariante discuss the big ideas from his talk here.
