Share your experiences – Mental health support services during COVID-19

As you may know, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to changes to many mental health support services, with services temporarily suspended, running a reduced capacity and/or switching to a remote format by telephone and online /video.                                       

We are committed to improving mental health services, and your feedback will help us to understand how they are working in Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG), so that we can identify and quickly work on areas for improvement. Therefore, we want to find out about your experience of accessing and using mental health support services in the past few months.

Any personal information about you will be kept safe in a way that is recommended by the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR). We will use the answers to the survey questions to write a brief report and put it on our website. We will not include anyone's personal information in it.

Please note all anonymized responses will be shared with the BNSSG Healthier Together Partnership to ensure your contribution helps them improve their services and how those services work.
