The highly acclaimed Positive Mental Attitudes' programme recently launched its new website; www.positivementalattitudes.org.uk. The new site highlights this rapidly expanding mental health awareness and anti-stigma project and its continuing success in East Glasgow and nation-wide. The website has been re-launched with a vibrant new look and straight-forward content, detailing the multi-faceted work of Positive Mental Attitudes (PMA) in their quest to improve awareness of mental health and challenge stigma. Downloadable resources and reports are available at the click of a button, such as the successful PMA Education Pack for secondary schools (also hosted on the national ‘see me’ campaign site), plus animation and film clips from PMA’s art groups will be featured online. PMA are also currently developing a comprehensive database of personal stories and the new website will soon host these case studies, detailing real-life experiences of stigma and discrimination due to mental health issues. PMA – part of the East Glasgow Community Health and Care Partnership – aims to promote a better understanding of mental health problems so that people can seek help early and be treated better within their communities. SRN advertise a range of events and resources developed by external organisations. In doing so we do not necessarily endorse or recommend them and we are in no way responsible for content or quality. |

| Evaluating Recovery in Practice Training |
16 Jul Last year we commissioned Health in Mind and Penumbra to deliver a new training course, aimed at people who worked in the voluntary sector, called Recovery in Practice. Given the nature of this new course we were keen to learn more about how well it had worked so we commissioned an independent evaluation of the training, led by Jacki Gordon + Associates and we are now delighted to publish the findings. |
