Our Second Anniversary
As we start our third and final year as a network, we send a huge thank you to all of members:
- Thank you for contributing to our members survey, and for helping to shape the next year together
- Thank you for your involvement, input and commitment over the last year - a network is nothing without the involvement of its members
- Thank you for continuing to be involved, despite the many pressures we are all juggling at the moment
Our focus remains to transform our understanding of how social, cultural and community assets can support mental health. We will be sharing a summary of our collective achievements and the results from our annual evaluation in our December newsletter, including highlighting how we will address the priorities you have identified for the network in the year ahead.
Early Career Researchers: The coordination team for the 8 UKRI-funded Mental Health Research Networks have organised a free 2-part event series bringing together researchers from across the networks to provide proactive advice on applying to and securing mental health research funding, career development, and networking. Details with links:
Funding – Mon 30th November, 1-4pm
Networking workshops – Mon 7th December, 1-4pm
Our COVID Social Study continues to make headlines with participants continuing to respond to the now monthly surveys. The study team are also conducting interviews with people about how their mental health and wellbeing is being affected by the pandemic. We are missing the voices and experiences of young people aged 13-17 from Black and ethnic minority communities. Please get in touch with Alex if you are able to help connect us, to ensure their experiences are heard.
