A one-day conference on the crisis in mental health and what must be done to stop it

About this event

There is a crisis in mental health services in the UK. It's time to act

Almost 7000 mental health nurses were lost from 2009 to 2018. Meanwhile, the number of doctors in specialist psychiatric training fell by 20%, and beds available for patients with serious mental health issues fell by over 8000.

That's why we're holding a one-day conference in September this year to take a closer look at the mental health crisis - what's driving it, how government decisions have let it worsen over time, and what action we can take to set things right.

Click here to see our new video on the mental health crisis and the action we are demanding from government.
