Whether you are a healthcare professional or someone with an interest in mental health, we want to hear what you think we should be covering

Mental health is often referred to as the Cinderella service of the NHS. Professionals working in the sphere have long called for parity of esteem between mental and physical health. Services are under strain and at the same time, stigma still surrounds mental health problems.

With this in mind, the Guardian’s Healthcare Professionals Network will host a new series dedicated to mental health and we want to hear what you’d like it to cover.

Are you a healthcare professional working in mental health? What challenges do you face? What has been the best moment in your career? Have you got any success stories to tell? Are there any services that impact on lives that you think merit attention?

Or are you someone who lives with a mental health condition? Is there a message you would like to tell people working in the NHS and the general public? Is there a certain mental health problem you feel is misunderstood or overlooked?

Please share your suggestions of stories, projects, innovations and people you would like to see included in our new series on mental health in the form below. We will not publish anything without getting in touch with you first and you can remain anonymous.
