Dear List Members,
a Department of Health-funded programme to tackle the stigma of mental
illness is commissioning research to establish how mental illness is
portrayed on TV in drama and popular entertainment programmes. It is
intended to be used as the centrepiece of a wider exercise of engagement
with senior TV producers and scriptwriters to encourage them to enter
into a dialogue about how they represent and use mental illness in
creative programming.
£35,000 of funding is available for this research which is expected to
take no longer than six months. Tenders must be submitted by October 12.
Please email [log in to unmask] for the tender documents.

Best Wishes,
Salvo
