Local campaigning
Local campaigning is really important as many decisions about health budgets and services are decided at a local level.
Rethink encourages people to campaign on national issues at a local level as local activism is a really effective way of creating change.
If you want to change people's attitude the local media is one of the most effective ways of doing this.
