The Booth continues to be a key tool in our award-winning campaign to<br />
challenge stigma. We are now working with schools and young people to<br />
capture their views both before and after they have received the lessons<br />
that are incorporated within our educational packs.<br />
3.7.6 Sticks and Stones Campaign<br />
Our ‘Sticks and Stones’ campaign to challenge mental health and learning<br />
disability-related stigma received two commendations in 2011, from the<br />
Association of Healthcare Communications and Marketing and ChaMPS<br />
Public Health Network.<br />
During the reporting year we succeeded in achieving a very specific<br />
behavioural goal designed to improve the mental well-being of our service<br />
users - collecting 106,577 pledges on our online petition not to use words<br />
like ‘nutter’ to describe people with mental ill-health and learning<br />
disabilities.<br />
We created 2.3 million opportunities for people to read stories about<br />
mental health and learning disabilities in the media – helping to reduce<br />
stigma by promoting greater public awareness and understanding of<br />
conditions like Personality Disorder.<br />
Specially-designed educational packs produced with the input of teacher<br />
volunteers are currently being delivered in schools across our footprint.<br />
The packs include lesson plans and activities for children aged four to 16 -<br />
supporting teachers to improve the quality of education young people<br />
receive around mental health and learning disabilities.<br />
We have increased our Corporate <strong>Partnership</strong> membership to more than<br />
30 employers – working with them to embed the campaign values within<br />
their workplaces and improve the quality of support they provide to<br />
employees with mental ill-health.<br />
