Mental Health Tips & Links

BBC radio 4 has produced a fascinating series called: ‘Is psychiatry working’

It explores the history and current position of mental health understandings and approaches to treatment.  The series is informative, challenging and gives a really interesting insight into approaches and understandings of mental health.   Please be aware that they don’t shy away from difficult discussions about the reality of institutional care, serious mental illness and vulnerability so be mindful that the episodes many contain something that might be triggering, always listen with care and seek help and support if you need it (information on support available can be found on our Find Support page).

The first episode:

“How do patients move towards health and recovery” can be found here:
