The People’s Forum

The People’s Forum is an involvement organisation for mental health service users in Leicestershire and Rutland.  We engage with people across the county to find their views on mental health issues and represent these views to commissioners and service providers.  Our aim is to make mental health services better for everyone, and to be the voice of those who use those services.

Through group advocacy and training for services users and carers, Genesis supports people to make their voices heard where it matters, to relate their experiences, and to achieve changes and reform to the way mental health services are planned and delivered.

LAMP
