A seminar exploring the latest research into the history and politics of community health, with speakers Sally Frampton, Erica Charters, Dan Leveson, and Stuart Bell.

• Dr Sally Frampton has been working with a range of community mental health organisations (including Restore, Oxfordshire Recovery College, and My Life, My Choice) to develop a historical overview of the changing nature of mental health treatment across the county. Her team has developed a number of free resources based on their research, including an oral history archive and teaching resources for schools, which you can find online via the Oxford Health Histories website.

• The Oxfordshire Health Humanities project works with Oxfordshire County Council and local community enterprises to evaluate community health initiatives and provide insight into health inequalities. Professor Erica Charters will discuss the challenges and opportunities of using humanities and history methods in community health, particularly in Oxfordshire.

• Sally and Erica will be joined by Dan Leveson (Director for Places and Communities) and Stuart Bell (former Chief Executive of Oxford Health NHS FT and a History graduate) to discuss health and history policy engagement in Oxford.

The event is free and everyone is welcome, but please note that the number of spaces available is limited, so do book in advance.
