Strategies for Living Team - Mental Health Foundation
The aim of this initiative is to build up a database of users and survivors who can then be connected up with research projects actively engaging users. This can be done by geographical area or by research topic.
People have already responded from across the UK, and we are now aware of a wealth of individual experience and of a wide range of user-led and user-controlled research projects. Whilst some people have been involved in mental health research for several years, or have experience of other types of research, other individuals have no direct experience of research but are really keen to get involved.
The team is currently in the process of exploring funding options for developing this rich resource - your knowledge and experience.
