Great to hear from @MadeByMortals yesterday on the value of #livedexperience "Don't count people as data, or just for their lived experience, but include them as participants in research"

[Lived Experience Network @LivedNetwork]

Amen!

[Wellcome @wellcometrust]

Lived experience is a unique, person-centred knowledge, insight and expertise.

It brings important and often overlooked perspectives to the field of mental health.

But involving lived experience in research is more than good practice – it’s essential. ⤵️
