Highland Community Care Forum
People affected by mental illness can experience stigma and discrimination in all areas of their lives, which often has a negative effect on their wellbeing, destroying self-esteem, causing depression and anxiety and creating social isolation.
HUG’s Communication Project works to increase awareness and understanding of mental health issues across the Highlands, improve the services and treatments available and challenge stigma and discrimination so that people living with mental health problems get support to recover and live fulfilling lives.
