- Time to Change Kingston
Time to Change Kingston is a local movement of people and organisations aiming to change the way people think and act about mental health in Kingston, reducing the stigma and discrimination that so many still face.
The Time to Change Kingston Hub is led by Champions (people with lived experience of mental health issues) who meet regularly to agree activities that will help tackle stigma and discrimination in mental health. Their work is supported by a Steering Group made up of champions, and local voluntary and statutory organisations.
The Hub was coordinated by Healthwatch Kingston until the 31st of March 2021, when Mind in Kingston took over the Time to Change Kingston coordination role.
Want to get involved?
The Hub’s role is to get people in Kingston to talk about mental health and change the way people act and think about mental health. This could be a chat over coffee, a talk, a music event or an open day. These different events are led by champions.
We are always looking for champions; people with lived experience of mental health who want to change behaviour and attitudes towards mental health in a more positive way. Champions will receive training and support so they can talk about mental health and help promote the Hub’s work. To find out what a champion does, click here.
