At the recent National SWAN conference held in London we decided to take this further and work towards producing our own statement modelled on the ‘SOCIAL WORK AND SOCIAL JUSTICE: A MANIFESTO FOR A NEW ENGAGED PRACTICE’ that launched SWAN so successfully.
The mental health manifesto is still in its early days with a focus on gathering together interested individuals and organisations to see how we can best proceed. So, if you’d like to join us, whether you are a practitioner, a service user or if you are university based, please do let us know.
