Service user involvement in mental health research poses specific challenges for both researchers and service users.

The book describes the relevant background and principles underlying the concept of service user involvement in mental health research, providing relevant practical advice on how to engage with service users and how to build and maintain research collaboration on a professional level. It highlights common practical problems in service user involvement, based on experience from various countries with different social policies and suggests ways to avoid pitfalls and common difficulties.

The book helps researchers decide which level of service user involvement will be adequate for their research activities and what will be feasible in view of the practicalities involved. It is also ideal for service users who are interested in becoming involved in research, providing relevant background information on the possibilities of involvement in professional research.

She has been a leading member of the survivor/service user movement for many years and has contributed to a number of publications, e.g. 'On Our Own Terms: a report on the mental health service user movement'; 'Being There In A Crisis', and 'Social Perspectives in Mental Health'.

Index.

"Anyone involved or wanting to become involved in service
user involvement in research would find plenty to inspire and
challenge in this book." (Nursing Times, 17
September 2012)

"The emphasis in the handbook is of recovery and for research to
be purposeful and useful in supporting this ... Reading this as a
service user/carer, it gives optimism and hope as there are many
good examples of personal stories and recovery - including
recovery from schizophrenia which sends out a strong message."
(MHRN newsletter, July 2011)

"This engaging, helpful and well-informed handbook offers a
comprehensive and thorough revievw of service user involvement in
mental health research, covering issues ranging from values and
collaboration to control and power." (Mental Health Practice, 1
June 2011)

"The book may be of interest to those wanting to understand what
user involvement can mean as well as those who have experienced it
and want to extend their knowledge and research skills. Its scope
means that chapters are necessarily brief but references are
provided to follow up on interesting debates and topics." (British
Journal of Psychiatry, December 2010)

"My perspective, as a researcher who works with service users,
is that this is a useful resource to dip in and out of for advice
about practical issues that arise when working with service users,
e.g. payment. The book clearly explains what needs to be considered
in paying service users. I found this advice was not readily
available elsewhere when I needed it." (The Bridge Newsletter,
2011)
