Smooth Guide Updates

Users familiar with the Smooth Guide may know that we have, in the past, posted and maintained a list of updates and corrections on this website. As the lastest edition of the Guide is now nearly 3 years old, the task of keeping up-to-date with all these changes has grown to where it is impractical to list everything here.

The following list is therefore limited to where there have been significant changes around how an organisation is contacted - e.g. change of address or telephone number - or where services that are listed are known to have closed. For the most current information available, please feel free to browse the online version - the Smooth Guide Mental Health Directory - accessible via the 'Search Online' link from the menu.
