Anti-stigma
We are committed to ensuring that people with mental health difficulties enjoy the same rights on an equal basis with everyone, without discrimination.
Service users often identify stigma as one of the most difficult aspects of dealing with mental health difficulties. Stigma is a barrier to people seeking help and to understanding mental health problems. We are committed to actively promoting the understanding and de-stigmatisation of mental health issues both locally and nationally.
Stigma doesn't matter, we do
- sharing your personal experiences or thoughts on the positive difference it has made when stigma or discrimination is not experienced
- learning about what a home, work or community without stigma would mean for people living with mental health difficulties
- sharing the campaign message and assets with friends and contacts or in your work or community, and using our #NoStigma hashtag.
