NHS England has reversed its decision to stop funding a mental health service for hospital doctors and other secondary care staff, following a campaign to save it.

Practitioner Health was to stop accepting new patients, from secondary care settings, from Monday 15 April - while NHS England carried out a review of mental health support available for all staff groups.
