Whatever happens next with #HighIntensityNetwork it is time to salute the extraordinary victory of the @StopSIMMH Coalition. In 2 months a survivors' campaign brought down a model of care supported across NHSE to expand for nearly 8 years. Remember this. 1/2

Please take the time to read through this brilliant 🧵 on #HighIntensityNetwork / SIM More shocking details uncovered through freedom of information requests No ethics reviews, no risk assessments, no consent processes – these are research basics #StopSIM

⁦@StopSIMMH⁩ NHS response set out in my letter. The model is not sponsored by NHSE and is not part of the LTP and we have written to medical directors to ask them to review for evidence base, values and compassionate care.

As this is #maternalmentalhealthweek I thought I'd share an update of how it is to parent as a 'mad mum' (i.e. a mum who hears voices, sees visions, has some unusual beliefs - of varying intensity - & a whole host of other stuff that has gotten me diagnosed with 'schizophrenia')

Just out and possibly the most damning statement yet from the #StopSIM Coalition: there is a strong likelihood that SIM is in breach of the 1998 Human Rights Act and the 2010 Equality Act
Replying to @StopSIMMH
We are adding our recent statements to this original thread, for posterity. Please find attached the #StopSIM Coalition Statement relating to concerns about HUMAN RIGHTS and EQUALITY dated 5.5.21: #HighIntensityNetwork
