Together Henry Hawkins Lectures to Begin in September 2023

We’re excited to announce that in September 2023 we will be hosting a thought provoking event focussed on mental health called the Together Henry Hawkins Lecture.

The events will celebrate the legacy of our founder Henry Hawkins and promote what people tell us is important to their mental health. The lectures will feature high profile speakers,  from the world of arts, culture, healthcare and academia.

Together continues to innovate and these lectures, and the debate they generate, will help all of us to truly value and respect people’s experiences of mental distress. Our aim is to continue to develop creative and inspiring ways of supporting people and for their voices to be heard in determining their own futures. The first lecture will take place in September 2023, the month of Henry Hawkins’ birth. The first lecture will focus on the subject of the Arts and mental health and the importance and positive impact that art in all its forms can play in the lives of people living with mental distress.
