Plymouth Mental Health Collective

The initial meeting.

May 22, 2023

A big thank you to everyone who came along & took part in our first community listening event for the Plymouth Mental Health Collective on Thursday 18th May at the Devonport Guildhall.

We had a great attendance to the event with a mix of people & organisations all bringing a unique perspective & an enthusiasm to collaborate.

Many interesting conversations took place & we look forward to updating you with an overview of feedback, thoughts & insights from the day in the near future.

Next Steps

  • Collate information from feedback

  • Communicate findings via newsletter

  • Arrange another session based on feedback

  • Review progress after second session

If you missed the event or didn’t manage to come along on the day some topics and questions posed during the community listening event included: -

  • What challenges are groups who are supporting people with their mental health in the community facing, and how can we explore solution-focused ideas to barriers?

  • What would you want from the Plymouth Mental Health Collective and how could it support you to continue running activities in the community alongside other potential benefits?

  • How can we work together to support and influence system change?

We look forward to seeing you at the next gathering & welcome any comments or thoughts you may have.

Thank you!!
