We absolutely love the theme for this year’s . As you probably know, we are huge believers in the value of lived experience for shaping services and think decisions should be made collaboratively with the people they impact. We’d like to take a minute to thank our team who run our mental health Lived Experience Advisory Groups in Brighton and East Sussex. They work so hard to keep the LEAGs relevant, interesting, meaningful and impactful.

We’d also like to say a huge thank you to every member who has given their time and expertise to the LEAGs. Your consultation, ideas and feedback are so valuable to local mental health services and resources. Your dedication helps better things for others in the local community.

People who have experienced mental health services know better than anyone what works — and what doesn’t. That lived experience is powerful, and when shared, it can help form services that truly meet people’s needs. Want to know more about our LEAGs? Visit our website:

It's Digital Inclusion Week, so we thought we would share with you this short tips guide to inclusive and accessible approaches to digital health and care services. It's designed to help staff understand technological barriers that disabled people, neurodivergent people, and those with long-term health conditions face.

The guide comes from a lived experience perspective and was created in collaboration with our GIG and Ask The Experts groups.

Could you be the person to lead Possability People into our next chapter? We’re looking for an experienced, values-led senior leader to join our user-led disability charity at an important point in our development.

This is an opportunity to build on more than 40 years of experience, working with our Trustees, staff and volunteers to shape our next three-year strategy, strengthen our financial resilience, support our people and raise PP’s profile and influence across Brighton & Hove and beyond.

We’re looking for someone who can combine strategic thinking with visible, collaborative leadership — someone who listens before acting, builds trust and understands the importance of lived experience.
What we’re looking for:
• Significant senior leadership and strategic planning experience
• Strong financial, communication and relationship-building skills
• Commitment to disability rights and user-led, inclusive work

£55,000 | 35 hours per week | Brighton & Hove | Flexible/hybrid working
If you’re looking for a leadership role where you can make a real difference while helping shape what comes next, we’d love to hear from you.

Did you know Cerebral Palsy isn’t one specific condition? It’s actually an umbrella term used to describe a group of movement and posture disorders that are permanent and are caused due to damage occurring to the brain during development. How a person experiences Cerebral Palsy can change over time. There are also variations of how severely a person is affected and variations of motor type. The complexity of Cerebral Palsy is also impacted by accompanying issues such as fatigue, pain and other health conditions*.
