New graduates welcome to Oxleas
We welcomed more than 20 new colleagues this week as part of our new Graduate Scheme.
Through this innovative programme, a cohort of trainee mental health practitioners have been recruited who will be working with teams across Bexley, Bromley and Greenwich.
"I am delighted to welcome such a diverse and enthusiastic group to Oxleas," said Chief Executive Dr Ify Okocha at the graduates' welcome event. "We look forward to working with you and supporting your careers here."
There was a high number of applications to this year's scheme and we will be looking to repeat this next year.
More details are available on our Graduate Scheme page.
Media enquiries
The communications team provides a point of contact for journalists to respond to all media enquiries.
We are happy to help journalists represent the trust accurately, so please do get in touch to ensure your facts and information are up-to-date before publishing your story.
Our media team is responsible for:
- Responding to media queries
- Arranging interviews with our nationally and internationally renowned experts who can talk about some of the trust’s specialist topics
For all media enquiries Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, please email oxl-tr.communications@nhs.net where a member of the team will review and action your request.

Filming and photography requests
We receive documentary, location and broadcast filming requests on a regular basis – we consider all proposals on an individual basis and will try to accommodate proposals where possible, if appropriate.
No photography or filming is permitted without prior arrangement and agreement. Our patients always come first and we have a duty to protect their safety and confidentiality. Anyone found filming or taking photographs on the trust premises without the permission of the trust’s communications team will be asked to leave by the security department and may face prosecution.
Unless agreed otherwise, film crews and photographers must be accompanied by a member of the Communications Team at all times.
