The United Kingdom Overseas Territories Association (UKOTA) hosted a powerful Mental Health Webinar on 9 December to increase the understanding of Mental Health issues in Overseas Territories. The objectives of the Mental Health Webinar were:
- to discuss context and constraints of accessing funding and technical assistance/advice
- to provide a forum for exchange of knowledge and practices;
- to engage with HMG and NGOs to better understand the support that could be available to the OTs.
Speakers included:
HMG and Territory Governments
Loud Silent Voices – Cayman Islands
Centre For Mental Health, Mental Health First Aid
Time To Change
Brian Heyworth from City Mental Health Alliance.
The Event was moderated by Poppy Jaman OBE, CEO City Mental Health Alliance.
Excellent participation from all territories on such an important topic was fantastic to see.
With thanks to the speakers and the UKOTA organising team.
