We are an independent organization working to support, promote and protect the rights of people with mental health problems.

We aim to help mental health service users to have a say about their care, treatment and quality of life when receiving services through a number of initiatives, such as our In-Patient and Community Visitor Schemes, district forum meetings, Service User Improvement work and grants for Individuals and Groups. We also offer signposting, listening, and information on all issues around mental health services in Cornwall, including information on Self Help Groups. We produce a quarterly Newsletter that informs people about recent issues raised by service users and any responses we have received from health and social care services in relation to these issues; it also contains useful information about helpful organizations and services that may be of interest.
