Islanders invited to help shape Jersey mental health policies

Andy Weir

Mental health service users and their carers are being invited to share their ideas surrounding how support for the illness can be improved.

An open meeting is taking place on 12 November, hosting by bosses from the adult mental health service. 

Running between 6.00 - 8.00pm in St Helier's Town Hall, islanders will hear what work has been going on to improve support over the last two years. 

The floor will then be open to attendees to voice what they think is going well, as well as their concerns and suggestions for how the service can be made better.

Jersey's Mental Health Director Andy Weir hopes as many people as possible will come along: 

"It really matters to us in mental health services, that we hear the voices of those that use the services and those that care for them.

"This is a real opportunity for people to come and not just hear about the work we do, but to really help us shape the future of mental health services for islanders.

"So the more people that engage in that and tell us about the things that matter to them, the better."
