The First LEAP

The first LEAP meeting was held in late January 2012 and was very well attended. 

Several of the members of the LEAP suggested a website to keep up-to-date with the PRIMROSE project and as a method for staying in touch with each other, so sharing their lived experiences and ideas in a personal forum. 

This personal blog has been created for LEAP members.  This helps in several important ways:

• It regularly updates people on the PRIMROSE project.
• It increases dialogue and participation with service users and carers.
• It publicizes the project and LEAP to a wider audience.
• People not on the LEAP (carers, health professionals, service users with physical health issues) may participate and comment, so widening participation. 

This is a personal blog and perspective of the members of the LEAP.  Views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of Rethink Mental Illness and the PRIMROSE team at University College London.
