Past Events:

Annual General Meeting and Ceilidh

Photo GalleryWe had a really successful AGM and ceilidh on Friday, 28 October 2011. During the formal part of the meeting our Chair, Mark Gamsu, explained what the bureau had done during 2010/11 (see our annual reports for details) as well as our plans for the future.  Our Treasurer, Steve Carty, also explained our financial situation as at end of March 2011.  

Afterwards, the ceilidh, with the Village Band, was lots of fun with all ages and abilities taking part; it had lots of confusion and people getting tangled up!

Mental Health Symposium

On 20 May 2011, we cohosted a symposium on 'Improving mental health and wellbeing: the role of advice and advocacy', with Rethink, Salford Mental Health CAB and Citizens Advice.  This was an opportunity for people using services, advice workers and advocates across the country to get together and share good practice. The guest speaker was  Ian McPherson (Mental Health Providers Forum) and there were a variety of workshops covering advocacy and welfare rights issues.  Reports from the workshops can all be viewed on the symposium website at,  Mental Health Symposium.
