The Trust has signed a seven-year lease.
Project lead Dr Helen Donovan, Consultant Clinical Psychologist and professional lead for Bedfordshire & Luton Adult Psychological Therapies, said: “Mountbatten House is a modern site and better suited for patient care.
“It is also more centrally located in Dunstable with better access to public transport and nearby public parking.
