Schizophrenia Awareness Week – One Door Symposium 2022

On Monday 23rd and Wednesday 25th May, join One Door Mental Health in our annual symposium as we share the latest insights, promote inclusive behaviour and encourage a purposeful and meaningful life amongst the creative and passionate community living with schizophrenia.

For many years, this event has been the perfect platform to launch the national Schizophrenia Awareness Week (SAW) Campaign, which runs from 22 to 28 May 2022.

In 2022, we will bring together some of the leading researchers, advocates, and industry leaders to discuss topics such as alternative therapies, ensuring quality and safeguards for psychosocial services, research, and peer leadership.
