Become a Peer Ambassador

Who can be a SANE Peer Ambassador?

Peer Ambassadors are either:

• People with their own lived experience of complex mental illness
• Families, friends, carers, partners and colleagues, who support someone affected by mental illness.

'Being involved with SANE has given me a voice that I never had before.'

– Sylvia Magnay
