We are the mental health forum of the Royal College of Nursing, and as such, our role is to represent mental health nursing and all things mental health within the broader family of the RCN. Co-production is central to everything we do, producing resources for your professional development and campaigning for better policy locally and nationally.

Our end-of-year report of the Mental Health Forum demonstrates the various projects and workstreams in which the steering group and colleagues have engaged over the past year. Our work this year shows how we are an environment for forum members to network, share ideas, inform and influence practice, research and education while lobbying and developing national policy and legislation.
