Keep an eye open for a forthcoming report from the National Mental Health Development Unit by Jane Fountain and Joanna Hicks on the results from a community engagement programme involving 75 community organisations. Several of these organisations studied mental health and the related service issues among Irish people. I'll let the list know when this is published (hopefully in January).

Furthermore, are there any researchers who have conducted qualitative research into the experiences of this diverse group of people with respect to the experience of mental health services?
