In memory of Lisa Thomas
She was passionate, she was forthright, and she was very vocal. Lisa used all of these qualities and harnessed some of her seemingly boundless energy to challenge discrimination.
She used her experiences inside and outside of the mental health system to inspire others to join the fight to end the social injustices caused by stigma and discrimination.
We will miss her on many levels as Time to Change colleagues, as activists against discrimination, and on a personal level I will miss her enjoyable company and the many lively discussions we had.
Sending condolences to close friends and family, and wishing her spirit peace.
Sue Baker, Director, Time to Change

Lisa was a smart, funny and brave woman. I will miss her terribly - not just working with her on Time to Change in Dorset and on the national Lived Experience Advisory Panel, but also her reassuring hugs and caring emails and texts. Most of all I will miss the warmth of her heart. May you now be at peace, dear Lisa.
