Abstract
  • This is one of a series of papers being produced in 2002/03 as part of the King's Fund Mental Health Inquiry. The Inquiry aims to assess whether London mental health and mental health services have improved over the last five years. In 1997 the King's Fund produced a report entitled 'London's Mental Health', describing services in inner London "that cannot be sustained". The current Inquiry asks what, if anything, has changed since then, as well as tackling some new questions.
  • Effective promotion of mental health and well being encompasses coordinated activities for communities, families and individuals. However, little is known about the current state of mental health and well being promotion in London. This paper seeks to fill that gap, drawing evidence from three 'case study' projects promoting mental health and well being, as well as from information generated through questionnaires, interviews and workshops. In addition, examples of positive practice were collected throughout the research process. [Executive summary]
