Liverpool PSC

Welcome to the Liverpool Psychologists for Social Change Twitter account! We have made the decision to split NW PSC into smaller sub-regions. Look out for details of future meetings here!

Very excited to see this manifesto from @weareplatfform calling for a holistic and social justice approach to mental health 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Regulator of Social Housing takes action against Rochdale Boroughwide Housing after investigation finds widespread failings on damp and mould - GOV.UK gov.uk/government/new…

“Something needs to happen immediately otherwise people are going to be in even worse conditions”. Housing conditions impact on physical and mental health. We agree, Nick. This needs to change!

The newly formed / forming Manchester group had their 3rd meeting yesterday. We are working on a Manchester specific mission statement. Let us know if you want to contribute.

What does the North West have to say about Coffey scrapping the health inequalities paper? Seems things are going from bad to worse. The bigger the divide the worse off everyone is.

Manchester features in 3rd place in the list of highest deprivation by ICS. No sign of levelling up. @theresecoffey We need that white paper!

Great meeting of the Manchester subgroup last night. New connections and conversations around working using community psychology and liberation psychology principles. Next meeting in October, TBC. Get in touch if you want to join 😊

@DrRopaj Hope you had good attendance. Sounds like a really important topic!

Deadline approaching: Up to £5,000 is available for projects in Knowsley that improve the mental health and wellbeing of men - particularly those middle-aged. Community-based organisations have until 5pm, Friday to apply. More info 👉 ow.ly/GPoW50FzA1r

Trainees CP's have written an open letter supporting our tutors (@DClinPsyLiv) against the redundancies. We are asking for signatures from Psychologists (qualified, trainees, aspiring) and others who stand in solidarity to consider signing and sharing this forms.gle/RwKqWagmWUqM7z…

Valuable clarification from @NorthWest_PSC re communities/ children being in very different 'boats' during pandemic. Systemic, proactive solutions and investment will be needed in the coming years to ensure that basic, emotional, social and learning/ aspirational needs are met.

Now more than ever, the health community must unite & advocate for a safer, better & fairer world. If you work in health & share our values, we hope you will consider joining Medact as a member. You can find out more about Medact membership here: medact.org/membership/
