The Great Escape Bed Push The Great Escape Bed Push protests have now taken place each summer since 2005. Each year we symbolically escape psychiatric institutions, dressed in pyjamas and 'hot tail' it with a psychiatric bed to a place of safety and celebration. We aim to raise awareness about the over-use of forced treatments in mental health services and the need for holistic choice based services. www.bedpush.com |

The NHS Confidentiality
campaign was set up to protect
patient confidentiality and to provide a focus for patient-led
opposition the government's NHS Care Records System. This system is
designed to be a huge national database of patient medical records and
personal information (sometimes referred to as the NHS "spine") with no
opt-out mechanism for patients at all. It is being rolled out during
2007, and is objectionable for many of the same reasons as the
government's proposed ID database. http://www.thebigoptout.org/ |

We are the British arm of a
international organisation seeking to
change the current relationship between the health professions and the
pharmaceutical industry. This relationship is based on hospitality and
patronage which is unknown and undeclared to the general public.
Without action we will continue with the relentless medicalisation of
society and further erode our collective sense of well being. http://www.nofreelunch-uk.org |
