One of the exhibits from the Messages from the HeARTlands Exhibition this week in Plymouth. A strong message. Don't dismiss those you don't understand & you may feel uncomfortable being around. They are probably dealing with a lot. @CFPlym @HopeintheHearts @TIPlymNet

The lived experience artists have been heard. One attendee today said 'the exhibition has moved me, disturbed me, and upset me in the best way possible. None of us are alone.' @HopeintheHearts

Our Bridging the Gaps event is underway with @HopeintheHearts. We are thinking about our experiences as service users - whether at the dentist, the physio, or in a college, we are all service users.

Elina (Plymouth REG) on #Recovery:
Some people would say it's co-option. Some people would say it's an excuse for #mentalhealth servies to withdraw support. Some would say it's an opportunity for peer support and grassroots organisations to grow.

Mental Health Connections event
