Listening to Voices challenges stigma and builds a framework of respect, courage and hope in workplaces, educational settings and communities.

What we do

We deliver performances, training, workshops and educational resources which aim to:

  • reduce the stigma around mental illness and hearing voices
  • raise awareness of the impacts of trauma on mental health and wellbeing
  • build understanding of the lived experience of mental illness and the mental health system
  • upskill regional workforces working with people who have mental health issues.

Through creative performance, the project participants share their lived experience of the mental health system.
