Voicebox: Mental Health

Mental Health

Mental health still appears to be a taboo topic - we want to change that. We are now gearing our editorial focus to shine a spotlight on the complex and under-reported world of mental health. We will be conducting interviews, writing blogs and feature pieces, and inviting guest writers to provide you with engaging and informative content that hopefully inspires people to be more open and honest about their mental health.

Mental Health

Mental health can still be a taboo topic and we want to change that. We believe the arts can improve mental wellbeing, and artwork covering mental health issues can bring the subject into the foreground and provoke conversation.
