'see me' is an alliance of the following five mental health organizations: Highland Users Group (HUG), National Schizophrenia Fellowship (Scotland), Penumbra, the Royal College of Psychiatrists (Scottish Division) and the Scottish Association for Mental Health. Together, they can promote greater public understanding of mental well-being and mental ill health.
'See me as a person, not a label.' That's the message at the heart of Scotland's national anti-stigma campaign. Funded by the Scottish Executive as part of its national programme for mental health and wellbeing, 'see me' aims to break down the attitudes which lead to stigma and discrimination associated with mental health problems.
'see me' works with individuals, groups and organisations across Scotland, tackling stigma and discrimination wherever it occurs. Their activity includes an advertising and press campaign, alongside production of printed materials for use at a local level. They will also document instances of stigma and discrimination on their website, and lend their support to those involved in local anti-stigma action.
