We are a group of people affected by mental health issues, either directly, as family members or friends, or because we work in the field of mental health. We believe the voice of lived experience should be heard and welcome everyone who shares this view. We aim to act as a forum for the exchange of innovative ideas around areas of mental health and inclusion, to network, and to take positive action to change perceptions and improve people’s lives. We listen to a range of speakers, discuss ideas and plan campaigns. We meet monthly. Please contact us for more information.
