Welcome to our resource library, a dedicated collection focusing on the physical health of people living with mental illness. Each resource has been thoughtfully developed by Equally Well, our partners, and the broader Equally Well network.

Use the search function to individualise the resources shown, ie to find specific topics, health focuses, or media formats like podcasts.

If your organisation has valuable resources to share, we would love to hear from you. Please forward them to the Equally Well Project Team.

This resources library is not intended to replace professional advice. We are working to ensure the resources are up to date. However, if you come across any resource outdated please let us know.
