In 2024, we launched the Mental Health Partnership Board (MHPB), to bring together individuals with lived experience, carers, and professionals to improve mental health support across Cornwall. Ensuring all voices are heard, and shaping policies for better support and accessibility.

Why should I join the board?
The Mental Health Partnership Board is a unique platform where people with lived experience of mental health care, a carer to an individual with mental health concerns or a service provider who works in the mental health sector in Cornwall come together to identify challenges, discuss improvements, and influence meaningful change in Cornwall’s health and social care services.
Membership is made up of people with real life lived experience (you), health and social care commissioners from Cornwall Council, commissioners from the NHS Integrated Care Board (ICB), Public Health and VCSE wraparound support services.
How do I join the board?
Healthwatch Cornwall have five Partnership Boards:
- Carers

If you have lived experience of using health and social care services, or caring for someone who does, you can join one or more relevant Partnership Boards. If you are interested in joining, please contact us by email, or call us on 07384 252667.
