One of our aims as the Mental Health Improvement Team at NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is to support and develop mental health improvement activity across the Board area. All areas of our work are underpinned by equality, diversity and inclusion. As an organisation we are opposed to all forms of prejudice and believe that everyone should be treated fairly regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership status, race, religion or belief, sex, or sexual orientation.
On this page, we will be curating a diverse range of programmes and interventions that promote equality and anti-discriminatory approaches to mental health improvement
As we continue to add to it over time, it will provide a range of information and resources and signposting to effective initiatives that have been proven to be effective to address equality, diversity and inclusion to improve and support mental health and wellbeing.
We invite you to explore this page and discover the many ways teams and organisations are making a positive impact on the mental health and wellbeing of our diverse population across Greater Glasgow and Clyde.
Public Mental Health Showcase Event
This Showcase event brought together colleagues from across NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (and beyond), from Mental Health Services, Health Improvement, and Third Sector Organisations.
It looked to share work that has been funded by the Mental Health Programme Strategy Board and linked to Third Sector activity under the Scottish Government’s Winter Social Well-being Fund.
In the event report, you’ll read about the range of work that has been undertaken across the area, and some of the key learnings, insights, and priorities that have been identified as part of this that can help to inform your future work.
Equalities in Mental Health and Wellbeing
This strategic discussion paper provides an understanding of equalities in mental health and wellbeing, during and beyond the COVID-19 pandemic in the area of Greater Glasgow and Clyde.
It identifies three aspects that are key to facilitating equalities in mental health and wellbeing; capabilities of the population, personal and professional relationships, and service providers.
