Engaging in ME

The Maudsley Charity have funded Engaging in ME’, a project that will provide peer support groups for individuals in BAME communities who are experiencing serious, enduring mental health problems but are reluctant to access secondary services, often for cultural reasons.

In addition to offering safe places where people can participate in structured group work alongside their peers, this programme will empower participants to shape the course structure and take control of their mental health. Subsequently, people will be signposted to other relevant services where they’ll continue to receive appropriate support. The project will also open up the debate around mental health issues and how they present in different communities.
