ONLINE: Mutual Aid and Mental Health in Times of COVID

Description

Join us for the first in a series of discussions as part of the Social Power and Mental Health: Evolving Research Through Lived Experience conference

This online panel will explore how mental health survivors/service users have been responding to the COVID-19 pandemic.

We’ll hear about survivor-led mutual aid projects, and reflect on their links to a long history of survivor/service user activism.

And we’ll consider how current mutual aid efforts are rooted in the self-help movements developed by black working-class communities in the 1960s and 1970s.

 

Panellists include:

Bethan Mair Edwards (Mad Covid)

Akiko Hart (National Survivor User Network)

Sophia Siddiqui (Institute of Race Relations)

Helen Spandler (UCLan)

This event will take place via Zoom, details will be emailed to registrants.
