Co Chairman
CurrentThe vision of the Joshi Project is to establish the “Trieste model” of mental health care in Scotland. This is a system of social psychiatry, based on a hugely successful model that has operated in the Italian city of Trieste for more than 40 years.We are pushing for a more dignified and compassionate system of mental health care in Scotland. Funds raised by The Joshi Project will go toward the establishment of an NHS-funded Community Mental Health Centre pilot scheme in Glasgow, as well as the specialist training of CMHC staff, and generally lobbying for a more holistic and compassionate approach to mental health in Scotland.
