PERCEPTIONS ANNUAL CONFERENCE IN JEOPARDY

PERCEPTIONS FORUM HAS HELD FOUR SUCCESSFUL CONFERENCES IN RECENT YEARS.

TWO OF THESE WERE RUN JOINTLY WITH OTHER NATIONAL SERVICE USER ORGANISATIONS.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE CONFERENCES IS AVAILABLE ON THIS WEBSITE ON THE EVENTS PAGE.

THESE CONFERENCES HAVE BEEN IMPORTANT PLATFORMS FOR THE PROMOTION OF THE IDEAS OF SELF-MANAGEMENT AND RECOVERY IN SCHIZOPHRENIA. THEY HAVE BEEN ENTIRELY ORGANISED AND MANAGED BY SERVICE USERS.

THIS YEAR OUR USUAL FUNDRAISING CHANNELS HAVE YIELDED NO MONEY TO DATE.

OUR CONFERENCES CANNOT RUN ON GATE MONEY ALONE. MOST OF THOSE ATTENDING ARE SERVICE USERS WHOSE FINANCES DO NOT STRETCH TO PAYING SIGNIFICANT SUMS FOR ATTENDANCE.

WE NEED £3500 FUNDING IN TOTAL TO HOLD A CONFERENCE.

ALL DONATIONS WOULD BE WELCOME.

IF YOU WISH TO SUPPORT OUR CONFERENCE PLEASE SEND A CHEQUE/POSTAL ORDER ONLY PAYABLE TO: RETHINK severe mental illness.
