Please note: this event has been cancelled. We will update our website with information on when the meeting will be rescheduled as soon as possible.
Thursday 21 September 2023, 4:00–5.30pm
The NSUN network meetings are for members who want to connect with others shifting power in mental health. Maybe you’re part of a user-led group supporting your community, maybe you campaign for change, or maybe you want to get more involved in the network.
The space will be relaxed – there’s no requirement to stay for the whole time, you can keep your camera on or off, and there’ll be lots of different opportunities to talk, listen and connect with other members.
Spaces for this meeting are limited so please check your availability before registering, and email us at info@nsun.org.uk if you can no longer attend.
You will need to be an NSUN member to get your joining link – please sign up here if you are not already a member.
What to expect from the meeting
In this meeting we will be joined by members of the Stop Oxevision campaign, who will discuss their call on NHS England and individual mental health trusts to halt the rollout of Oxevision, a patient monitoring system consisting of an infrared sensor and camera which can be used to take vital signs and observe patients remotely, while an independent review is conducted into the legality and potential risks associated with use of surveillance technology within psychiatric inpatient settings.
The Stop Oxevision team will be joined by NSUN Trustee and author Mad World: The Politics of Mental Health, Micha Frazer-Carroll, and the panel will be led by NSUN’s Communities and Grants team, Ruairi White and Alaina Health.
NSUN’s Conduct Agreement
We want virtual NSUN spaces to be safe, welcoming, and inclusive. Harassment, hate speech, and inappropriate behaviour of any kind, verbal or in the chat/Q&A, will not be tolerated.
We reserve the right to immediately remove any attendee we consider to be in breach of this conduct agreement. This includes anyone making racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist, or otherwise discriminatory, offensive, or hateful remarks.
Removed participants will not be able to re-join the session, or, if applicable, join any of the rest of the sessions in a day or series of events. In order to avoid the derailing of sessions we will not enter into conversations around why conduct was deemed inappropriate in the sessions themselves.
Late admittance
Please note that to avoid disruption or distraction, we will be unable to admit latecomers (anyone who arrives ten minutes after the event’s start time).
Recording
This event will not be recorded or shared in any way. Please do not record or share the names or contributions (verbal or in the chat/Q&A) of any other event attendees on any platform.
Access
If you need help with costs to be able to access this event, we may be able to make a contribution – please get in touch with us at info@nsun.org.uk.
Zoom closed captions will be available to turn on during the meeting.
We will be asking that attendees keep themselves on mute while others are talking to avoid audio distractions.
Please let us know of any access requirements in your sign up form and we will try to accommodate them as best as we can.
