Latest news and opportunities

November 2022: Our Big Conversation 

Our Lived Experience Advisory Group wants to find out how well mental health services meet the needs of all Londoners. We know that some of us miss out because of who we are: our skin colour, how much money we have - or even where we live can have an impact - this is called a health inequality. 

So if you use mental health services in London, tell us about your experiences.

Why we work together

We are the voice of mental health in London. Together, we give a stronger voice to Londoners living with mental health problems, challenge stigma and inequalities, and deliver real change.

We are mental health specialists with grassroots connections; we can build on our local knowledge to deliver a vision for London led by lived experience by taking a pan London approach.

Our combined expertise allows us to reach more Londoners with quality services that are accessible wherever they live.

We work in partnership to support innovation to deliver more together than we could as individual organisations.

Guided by lived experience 

Our Lived Experience Advisory Group supports and informs our work. The group is made up of Londoners with lived experience of having a mental health problem. They share their experiences of accessing and using mental health services. 

The group meets regularly with support from Mind in London and a lived experience coach from Mind. 

Join our advisory group 

We're currently seeking new members to join our Lived Experience Advisory Group. The group helps influence decisions about services and policies that impact on people who experience mental health problems.

Closing date for applications is Wednesday 6 December 2023.
