Project that Made a Difference : Chance to Change
Chance to Change was a peer-led mental health support programme that brought together people with lived experience to influence services, tackle health inequalities and support positive change in their communities. Although the programme has now concluded, we are proud to preserve its resources, stories and achievements.
"see me, listen, be honest,
help me understand

I am an expert
in your professional hands."
Chance to Change
Does Digital
This short film that charts the digital journey of peer mental health support group Chance 2 Change and explores the impact of ‘digital by design’ health services on people and communities already facing health inequalities.
The pandemic magnified the need for C2C to upskill their members into the world of digital. Instead of simply running digital training workshops, the group decided to look at how their learning could influence and have an impact on both digital literacy and health inequalities in the wider communities.
The Wee Club that Changed our Life
This video shares how the group originated from Drumchapel and became an Expert Reference group for the Scottish Government.
In this short film, we explore the key role peer support plays in empowering people to challenge and influence change in their communities and beyond, how it can tackle health inequalities, and the importance of no more us and them, just us!
