Edinburgh Users Forum - EUF

Description

The Edinburgh Users Forum (EUF) is an independent collective advocacy group.

Our members are people who use, or have used mental health services. We are set up to give people who use mental health services a say in the services that are provided and how they are run.

We have meetings on the first Saturday of every month where we discuss issues and invite speakers along. We have representatives on groups that plan mental health services in the city. We campaign on issues that are important to us and publish the views of our members in our regular monthly newsletter.

If you would like any more information about EUF please contact us through CAPS.

More information about EUF, back copies of the newsletter and details of our next meeting are available on the CAPS website: www.capsadvocacy.org
