We said at the Low-Intensity Day we had ongoing plans in all sorts of ways, and we mean it! Watch this space and let us know if you want to be involved. #babcp2024

Speaking truth to power panel: Margo Ononaiye discussing equity, equity, equity.

Finishing today's Service Innovation session by looking at the cost of living crisis, and that more deprived areas have less access to talking therapies. #babcp2024

Now discussing breaking down barriers and using own experiences to connect about mental health. Again, the common theme is being able to have the time within service to do this work, something we know is difficult, especially at low intensity level, but surely necessary?

The importance of having roles that are about getting out and making connections with the local community, building trust and relationships. Some really powerful stories of the experiences working with refugees. #babcp2024

Discussing creating the role of Community Development PWPs, and the importance of career development for low intensity workers. #babcp2024

Are we caffeinated and ready for Friday?! Starting the day with service innovations. #babcp2024

Really powerful President's address from @BABCP_President Saiqa Naz about the challenges and discrimination she has experienced in the role. Feel very privileged to have sat and listened to such an impassioned speech.

Finishing up the day with the extraordinary AGM and the President's address. #babcp2024

Post lunch session on Neurodiversity - Natasha Hickmott talking about a grief cycle for those that are late diagnosed.

Thursday at #babcp24, listening to a panel discussion on conversations about race, ethnicity and culture in LICBT: Taf Kunorubwe discussing how access into services and interventions can't be "copy and paste" treatment across the board.

Thank you to all who presented at the Low-Intensity Day at #babcp2024, and also to all those who attended, both online and in person, for your thoughtful questions and comments. Watch this space for the launch of the journal club!

Our final panel of the day, discussing how to get involved with writing. Main advice: just do it!

Now discussing peer reviewing with Eve Bampton-Wilton #babcp2024 #lowintensityday
