Project Details

What is it?

It is an initiative made up of groups run by and for people with experience of mental distress.

The groups can be about lots of things; having fun, making friends, moral support, sharing your culture, campaigning, sharing a skill or learning a new one. They can run for years or for months – part of their very nature is that they are what people want them to be, when they want them.

Is the People’s Network for me?

Yes, if you feel isolated and/or have experienced mental distress. Whether you have lived in the Borough of Richmond all your life or just moved in, whatever your cultural identity, gender, sexuality, or mental health background, if you might be interested in joining or starting a group please get in touch using the contact details below.

For more information, please contact Sarah on the above contact details.
