Design For Mental Health in the Community

The stigma that often exists around mental illness can cause isolation and feelings of exclusion from society. The design and urban context of mental health services and the accessibility by others can help blur boundaries between the service and the community and engender feelings of belonging.

This event, hosted by Ryder Architecture, will bring together members from the project teams to discuss and debate the challenges of providing cutting edge facilities to meet the demands of a modern mental health service. Followed by networking and refreshments.
