Peer-supported Open Dialogue is a collaborative, person-centered, less hierarchical and more compassionate way of delivering mental health care including family members and friends from the start. It involves teaching teams new, systemic and more holistic ways of working and the UK is currently piloting it across 6 different NHS Trusts in one of the largest mental healthcare trials in the world.

Many of its principles are already recognized as best practice and a further wave of Trusts are also implementing aspects of Open Dialogue as part of their service wide community mental health transformation projects.

We will be convening a national conference on May 4th 2022 (face-to-face, offline) open to all and in it you will be able to learn more about the trial and pilots across the country and hear from clinicians, teams and peers as well as families who have been receiving it as well.

Tickets are on a donations basis – so pay as much or as little as you like – and it all goes to the cause of promoting Peer-supported Open Dialogue in the NHS.
