Hi everyone! We were formerly Voice Collective on Bluesky, but we've changed our name to Hearing Voices Mind in Camden so that we can share updates about all of our Hearing Voices projects (posts by the HV team, Sarah, Alex, and Fiona 👋)
It's not World Philosophy Day any more, but it's always a good day to examine harmful stereotypes 👏
On #WorldPhilosophyDay2025 watch a 90-second video produced with the Voice Collective where we reflect on the harmful stereotypes associated with hearing voices sites.google.com/vie... #philsky #edusky `#epistemicinjustice

Not “Hard to Reach,” Hardly Reached: racial justice and mental health
Co-production loses its integrity when it drifts into surveillance or policing; communities should have the authority to contest such shifts, not merely observe them.

Our next meeting is at 3pm GMT this Sunday 16th November, with Heather and Inge. We'll spend 90 minutes together, holding space for sharing experiences, pondering questions, expressing our feelings, sitting in comfortable silences.
If you are surviving, but only just, we're here.
If you are running out of motivation to go on, we're here.
If you need a confidential, non clinical, non judgmental community of people who are living with suicidal experiences, we are here; ready to share compassion and dark humour and solidarity.

Hearing voices groups are safe, inclusive, non-judgmental spaces which foster hope. Group members can connect with each other, explore ideas, but also share and sit with challenging emotions. Watch this short film about the impact of hearing voices groups for people in prison:
