The Mental Health Action Group is led by people who are current or ex-users of mental health services in the southern half of Derbyshire.
We are dedicated to improving the lives of people who have mental health problems, and those who care for them, and we are INDEPENDENT of any other organisation.
We work with groups and organisations to maintain and improve mental health services across the southern half of Derbyshire. Sometimes this means campaigning and lobbying to get our message across, but we aim to work in partnership where we can.
We also want to end the stigma and discrimination around mental illness. If you want to know more about our group please read on.
The Mental Health Action Group is funded by:
NHS Derby City
NHS Derbyshire County
Derbyshire County Council
Derby City Council
This provides for two part-time co-ordinators, and a small budget for expenses required for travel, meetings, stationery and postage.
Thank you for visiting our website, launched in August 2010. It’s still developing, so please be patient. We hope to enhance many features over the next year.
