Mental health booklet 2010

This brief guide has been written in collaboration with SEVA, the Manchester team of development workers for mental health of black and minority ethnic communities. It has been written in response to a stated need for a straightforward and general guide about mental health that would be useful for Manchester’s diverse ethnic communities. This publication is being circulated for comments as to its usefulness and to see whether it would be used if translated, and if so, into which languages.
