Share your views on mental health detentions
For many years, nationally there has been a higher incidence in the use of the Mental Health Act involving people from a Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) background.
Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust (CWPT) is undertaking a project to understand local rates of the use of the Mental Health Act and how these rates compare with the national rates. CWPT has said:
We would particularly like to hear from:
Men,
Younger adults (age 18-34),
Black Men of African and Caribbean Heritage,
People from Black and Minority Ethnic Groups,
about what their perception/experience is of mental health services, and what barriers they might be facing while contacting/using MH services.
This information will be used to help the project understand local rates and if any changes to services are required.
