Welcome to the website of the Making a Real Difference project. You can use this site to gain easy access tothe systems, guidelines, policies and procedures developed in partnership with our stakeholders.
Adapt these resources to suit your own circumstances to ensure that service improvement is being led by people using mental health services and those caring for them.
The resources will also help services to fulfil the principles set out in the White Paper, Our Health, Our Care, Our Say - a new direction for community services; which states that “change is to be driven, not centrally, but in each community by the people who use services and by the professionals who provide them.”.
