APG on Mental Health Holds First Meeting of 2021

Tue, 02 - February - 2021

MindWise is pleased to announce that the next meeting of the All-Party Group on Mental Health is on 10th February 2021.

The APG on Mental Health brings together members of the NI Assembly from different political parties, along with external mental health organisations and experts, in order to have an open forum to consider mental health issues. Together, we help to shape the agenda and our discussions with the Group often lead to projects that go on to inform policy.

The following items are on the agenda for the All-Party Group on Mental Health meeting on 10th February:

  • The 10-Year Mental Health Strategy
  • The #123GP campaign which aims to secure increased funding for GP surgeries to be used in the provision of counselling services for the public

We're looking forward to discussing these key issues for Northern Ireland and will let you know what comes out of the meeting.  

Find out more about the All Party Group, upcoming meetings and how you can get involved, on the NI Assembly Website.
