Service User Network Swindon (SUNS)...
Was founded in 1998, with the aim of supporting and empowering service users in the Swindon area. Helping service users to build up confidence and speak out , and enable them to participate in the development of mental health services.
SUNS is run by a committee of mental health service users, who continue to support both service users and professionals, with the aim of creating a better mental health service.
SUNS achieves its aims by:
- Attending and contributing to local NHS trust meetings
- Membership and active participation in mental health committees to raise awareness & feedback
- Providing a safe and friendly space in which service users can meet and discuss their experiences together & raise any concerns or examples of good practice
- Offering clubs and training open to all service users, in order to help build confidence, which will in turn help service users to contribute to meetings they attend
