Residents asked views

Last spring, we asked everyone who lives, works or runs a business in Southampton to express their views on how it can become a Mental Health Friendly City.

We wanted residents to complete phase one of our survey to discover what they think a Mental Health Friendly City looks like and what it would mean to them.

Mental health friendly city

Everyone’s mental health should be encouraged and valued, which is why we are working towards making Southampton a ‘Mental Health Friendly City’.

But we still need help from the city’s residents, workers and business owners, so we can incorporate their wishes and ideas into our collective vision.

Encouraged and valued

We feel a Mental Health Friendly City is one where people are understood, respected and supported and everyone’s mental health is encouraged and valued, as having good mental health is just as important as having good physical health.

For everyone

Taking care of our brains and our mental wellbeing is important for everyone.

We’re now on our phase two survey and would love for you to take part to tell us your ideas.
