Design in Mental Health 2025

This year we were delighted to collaborate with the Design in Mental Health Network (DiMH) at their 2025 Conference and Exhibition, with the AfH Project Gallery sitting art the heart of the space on Stand 600.

The belief that thoughtful, inclusive, and evidence-based design in mental health environments has the power to transform lives is the foundation of DIMH’s work.

Showcasing their excellent work in collaboration and engagement, innovation and testing, and research and education sits perfectly alongside our own knowledgeshare and best practice pillars.
