The mental health and wider health, social care and public sector systems need to be radically reformed.

We’re calling for an evolution in the way that mental health is understood and treated. Read about our recommendations in our Manifesto for change.

Our fundamental influencing priority is the prevention of trauma and the promotion of recovery/healing for those who do experience trauma.

This report brings together what was learned during lockdown, what it means for the health of our current system, and how these experiences may fuel future change.

The New System Alliance is a group of people and organisations working across the UK to change the system so it puts people first, not process.

Platfform’s Truth Project is our approach to hearing and bearing witness to people’s experiences. We will be looking at different aspects of the mental health system, and more widely, to understand what is happening to people.
