About Champions

Time to Change Champions are people with lived experience of mental health problems (including carers) who campaign to end mental health discrimination in their communities. They raise awareness by speaking out about their experiences, through events and anti-stigma projects.

The Champions network offers opportunities for people who would like to increase their skills and confidence whilst being involved in different aspects of our work. We regularly organise training and networking events for Champions in different parts of England.

As a Champion, you can promote your own work on this page, as long as it is raising awareness about mental health in some way or challenges stigma and discrimination.

All external opportunities will be clearly marked. Time to Change is not responsible for for the content or running of external projects and activities.
