VOX Scotland is Scotland’s national collective advocacy organisation for mental health. We are a membership organisation run for and by our members, all of whom have living or lived experience of mental ill health. We represent and amplify our members’ views to the Scottish Government, the NHS and others to influence mental health policy and practice, making sure that Scotland's laws and services reflect our members needs and interests. We conduct our own research and run campaigns to improve mental health services.
