Hi Over the last two days, we facilitated an event with 102 mental health users from all parts of Scotland. In two rounds of issues and actions on finding a collective voice during day one, they convened 30 sessions with 90 actions. On day two on making their voice heard, service users created 14 project teams, including plans to form a new national organisation. The opening circle was pulsating with energy and set the scene for a very memorable event. There were many stories of personal courage, participants who came to Dundee having not left their houses in more than two years and not having been away overnight or on a train alone for more years than they could recall. Even though participants were all users of mental health services and were coping with various medical illnesses, they stuck into the work with great gusto and humour. It was a magnificent conference of individual learning and sharing, as well as collective consciousness.
