| The poster session |
Wow! When it rains in Sydney, it really rains. Last night brought with it thunder lightning and bucket loads of rain and when was it that I was supposed to fit in some sleep? I’m not sure that I fully appreciated just how busy I would be out here in Australia or how many interesting people I would come across. I have been at the MHS Conference at Darling Harbour in Sydney over the last couple of days and in addition to meeting some of the people that I have been exchanging emails with during the planning stages I have also made several new contacts and squeezed in some extra appointments. I can’t possibly begin to list all the informative workshops that I managed to attend but I guess that some of the highlights would include Eva Cox’s thought provoking session on ‘The Social Context of Caring’, Key Developments from the Victorian FaPMI (Families where a Parent has a Mental Illness) Service Development Strategy and the Keynote Speech by Anthony D. Mancini on Infusing Recovery Principles into Public Policy. My head and notebook are awash with information and I have begun to recognise that I will probably have to send a bundle of information home by post.
