Welcome to The Big Ideas, a podcast series exploring how data shapes our understanding of mental health and inequalities and how to make the collection and use of data more inclusive to inspire a more equitable future.
The podcast series is part of the Social and Economic Predictors of Severe Mental Disorders (SEP-MD) research project led by Dr Jayati Das-Munshi from King’s College London and affiliated with the ESRC Centre for Society and Mental Health and the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre.
In the launch episode, ‘Making the most of existing data’, host Milena Wuerth, Research Assistant, King’s College London is joined by Amelia Jewell, Research Informatics and Governance Lead for the Clinical Records Interactive Search (CRIS), South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust, to discuss how data linkage can be like ‘patching the holes’; By linking mental health data with administrative datasets like census, the data starts to tell us about patterns of inequality in mental health. Amelia discusses some of the challenges of linking large-scale data and the importance of patient involvement in this so that data can be turned into a tool for change.

REACH Special 3: The Role of Culture on Youth Mental Health
Adna, Karima, and Thai-sha are back! Join them in this special limited series produced by the Resilience, Ethnicity, and AdolesCent mental Health (REACH) project’s Young Person’s Community Champions (YPCC).
With Black people being 40% more likely to access treatment through a police or criminal justice route, and less likely overall to receive psychological therapies, communities are reporting growing distrust in our justice and healthcare systems. But what other factors are at play? We know that culture can influence a person's beliefs, norms, values and opinions, but does it also have significant impact on mental health and help-seeking? And how do community experiences of mistrust impact the wider culture?
The REACH YPCC engage in the much-needed discussion of the links between culture, stigma and mental health. They are joined by Lucas and Jonas, two of our REACH Champions, and Nathaniel Martin who works at King’s College London and Black Thrive, reflecting on personal experiences of their own cultures and how this may have affected views surrounding mental health and help-seeking.
