Through our educational opportunities, we support face to face and online relationships between those vested in progressing the mental health industry.

Advocate

By reducing financial barriers, we support equitable access to education and help invest in a sector shaped by lived experience, diversity, and real-world insight.

Encourage

We want all members to share their insight, experience and developments in mental health through alliances, partnerships, contributions, feedback and active involvement in our community.
