Direct Link to the Hear Us Open Forum on Tuesday 5th October

The Hear Us Mental Health Open Forum is designed so that mental health service users can come together and discuss services that they access and that affect them. This forum gives us a chance to meet, ask questions and debate with commissioner, Croydon CCG and Council, and service providers SLaM (the South London and Maudsley NHS Trust). Also other services, such as the voluntary sector (Mind, Imagine, Status Employment, APCMH and others) are also able to come and discuss their services.

After the Open Forum; please help us by completing the Survey and our Equal Ops Monitoring Form, as it helps us secure our future funding
