The Wales Mental Health and Wellbeing Forum are a group of people with lived experience of mental health issues and their friends and families established in 2013.
Our mission is to ‘Improve Mental Health and Wellbeing, by respecting and empowering people to influence decision making.’
We directly influence decision making at a local and national level including Welsh Government, Health Boards, Local Authorities, and local organisations. To ensure that the forum continues to reflect the diversity of the people of Wales, we are currently recruiting for Independent reps and National Partnership Board members to join the Forum.
