Mental
Health Outreach
We
primarily conduct outreach work within the Turkish and Kurdish communities
in order to raise awareness around mental health issues. We also
organise other means of prevention in order to reduce hospital admissions
and establish and facilitate self-help and support groups.
We
work with individuals to help them to gain awareness of how issues
in their lives affect their well-being and encourage them to be
in control of their lives and make their own choices. A key part
of this work includes to de-stigmatise mental health within the
community.
We
also liaise with GPs and other mental health professionals to ensure
that they are aware of particular issues faced by the Turkish and
Kurdish communities in relation to their perception of mental illness,
mental health services.
