Time to Change Wales: Final Evaluation Report Mind Cymru, Gofal and Hafal

Time to Change Wales (TTCW), funded by the Big Lottery Fund, Comic Relief and the Welsh Government, is the first ever national campaign to end the stigma and discrimination faced by people with mental health problems in Wales by improving knowledge, attitudes and behaviour. To achieve this, TTCW carried out a wide range of projects that engage people in all sectors and communities between May 2012 and October 2014. Much more about the campaign and the work that it has been engaged in can be found here: http://www.timetochangewales.org.uk/
The campaign has been independently evaluated by the Welsh Institute for Health and Social Care (WIHSC) at the University of South Wales working in partnership with Opinion Research Services (ORS). Together WIHSC and ORS have collected a range of data that have been used to assess the impact of the campaign as a whole. This Overview Report brings all four strands of the research and evaluation together. As such this report should be read as a companion to reports written by WIHSC on all of the qualitative and quantitative data analysed during the evaluation, and alongside two reports from ORS – on the public attitude survey undertaken with members of the public over the course of the campaign, and a behaviour change survey with those people with lived experience of mental health problems or mental illness.
