“A fantastic weekend, brilliantly organised and smoothly run, it felt very professional. The content of the talks as well as the format was incredibly inspiring. I think the best part of the conference was the amazing atmosphere created by people who want to make a difference to mental health coming together and sharing ideas, experience and enthusiasm. I learnt a lot from this weekend as well as leaving feeling motivated and inspired to do more as a student volunteer.”

“The whole weekend was fantastic! Thank you very much for the opportunity”

“It was such an inspiring and well out together conference, I thoroughly enjoyed it.”

“Really enjoyed the conference and found it very interesting. It was a great mix of hearing objective information and subjective experience - so useful to both learn more about the theory and find out what it's actually like to be living with mental health problems. Thank you so much for putting this on, and thanks especially to all the students who shared their stories!”
“What a fantastic weekend, I learned so much! You evidently put in so much effort, and it really pulled off so congratulations on your success.”

“Thank you so much! This conference was absolutely amazing! There has been an incredible amount of development since two years ago and you have done brilliantly! I'm so glad to have gone! :)”
“Seriously, it was excellently run as it was last year - i felt very well looked after on the day and in the run up to the event with regular communications etc. and there was a good range of stuff on offer."

“The conference was very interesting and covered a wide range of relevant issues. It really inspired and encouraged me to get more involved with running events and campaigns at my uni.”
