The Big Mental Health Survey is here!
The Big Mental Health Survey is your chance to speak about your experiences of mental health, seeking support, and the mental health system too. The insights shared will inform the annual Big Mental Health Report which is used by decision makers to make real choices about the mental health system. What you say in this survey could go on to push for better laws, build better services and create a system that works for everyone.
This survey is important. It’s going to provide clearer data on experiences with primary care, secondary care and voluntary organisations that support mental health in England and Wales. This information is crucial in helping us better understand where the biggest problems are and what needs to change.
To take part:
• You have to be 16+ living in England or Wales
• You have to have experience using or trying to use either primary care services (like your GP or practice nurse), secondary care services (like Community Mental Health Teams), or charity mental health support services in the past 12 months.
The survey closes on 4 May.
The questions are about your experiences of mental health, seeking support and the mental health system. It should take no longer than 15-20 minutes to complete.
All responses are anonymised and anything you share will not affect the care you receive.
Take the survey today. Change the system tomorrow.
