In June 2020, Centre for Mental Health set out to hear from people across the UK and beyond about how the Covid-19 pandemic was affecting their mental health. 

Two years and over eighty submissions later, we have an incredible picture of diverse experiences, highlighting the shared sorrows and stark inequalities over this most difficult of times.

You are warmly invited to join us at this online event where we will be honouring the voices we’ve heard from over the course of this project. We will be launching a reflective piece by poet and activist, David Gilbert, which explores the stories as a diverse collective and the golden threads running through them, alongside the A Year in Our Lives anthology.

Hear from David Gilbert and some of the writers sharing their reflections on the pandemic, and talking about the impact of writing on mental health.
