As these are produced in-house we are able to include contact details of useful Luton and Bedfordshire organisations relevant to the publication, just one of the reasons why we create our own resources rather than just distributing national literature! We also have jkp and PUKE leaflets, which contain details of our adult and young people treatment services.
