Working in partnership to deliver training

Abstract

Service user involvement in mental health services is now accepted by mental health trusts and commissioners as an important feature of service development. Service users are playing an increasingly important role in training professionals, and can be particularly effective in challenging beliefs and prejudices held about mental illness. Em Jones and Sue Hahn describe how they have been working together, delivering training on sexuality and mental health, and self‐harm.
