Moving people
United Response is proud to support a new national anti-stigma programme being launched across England to make a big impact and reduce discrimination against those with mental health needs.
The campaign has been launched by Moving People, a groundbreaking and diverse programme of national and local activity, led by four mental health organisations - Mental Health Media, Mind, Rethink, and the Institute of Psychiatry, King's College London.

Awards for excellence
United Response has always taken staff training and development extremely seriously, knowing this is the only way to ensure that the support it provides is of the highest possible standard. And we are delighted to have been recognised for this commitment.
This year our Good To Great programme won a National Training Award after a rigorous series of assessments and onsite visits, and we have also been shortlisted as best overall employer in the 2008 Third Sector Excellence Awards. We pledge to continue to invest in this area and to continually strive to provide the best support we are able to.
