‘see me’ believes in working together with others to tackle stigma and discrimination; we can’t do this all on our own! Working collaboratively shows us that there is much to be gained by sharing information and resources, and much to learn from the perspectives of others.
We work with a whole host of organisations, large and small, but our key partners are:
In 2002, the Scottish Government launched Choose Life, a ten year strategy and action plan to reduce suicide in Scotland.
Choose Life sets out a framework to ensure that action is taken nationally and locally to build skills, develop training, encourage people to seek help early, improve knowledge and awareness of 'what works' to prevent suicide, and to encourage partnership working and improved co-ordination between services.
Suicide prevention is everyone's business
Breathing Space is a free and confidential phoneline service for any individual, who is experiencing low mood or depression, or who is unusually worried and in need of someone to talk to. 
Breathing Space is staffed by trained specialist advisors who have the relevant experience required to assist callers with their problems. There is an equal ratio of male to female advisors who may be part-time or full-time. Breathing Space is not a volunteer service.
The phoneline is open 24 hours at weekends (6pm Friday - 6am Monday) and from 6pm to 2am on weekdays (Monday - Thursday). These are hours at which other services may be unavailable or when worries seem insurmountable or can be unbearable.
The Scottish Recovery Network aims to engage communities across Scotland in debate on how best to promote and support recovery from long-term mental health problems.
Recovery is about more than the mere absence of symptoms and is a deeply personal process. However, international experience shows that developing an expectation of recovery and an understanding of what helps people regain control in their lives can have a powerful impact.
In addition ‘see me’ works with the following organisations where our work is complementary:
Mental Welfare Commission for Scotland
The Mental Welfare Commission for Scotland is an independent organisation working to safeguard the rights and welfare of everyone with a mental illness, learning disability or other mental disorder. ‘see me’ works with the MWC particularly where their findings have wider stigma and discrimination implications or where poor reporting of MWC findings has the potential to fuel stigma. 
Their website provides information about how people can get information, advice and guidance to help make sure people get care and treatment that is in line with the law and best practice
National Union of Journalists ( NUJ) in Scotland 
The NUJ represents journalists working in all media across Scotland. ‘see me’ helps to promote the NUJ’s guidelines { will be link to pdf once we get it } on reporting mental ill-health and suicide and meets with representatives to discuss trends in reporting as well as ideas for joint work.
Health Promoting Schools Unit
‘see me’ has been working with the Health Promoting Schools Unit to develop and refine our young people’s campaign as well as in promoting the PMA Curriculum Pack { link to pack for download/currently on site and needs to be moved over} 
Health promotion in schools is not just about encouraging children and young people to eat well and to exercise; it encompasses a much broader holistic approach. This approach is called the 'whole school approach', which includes promoting the physical, social, spiritual, mental and emotional wellbeing of all pupils and staff.
The Scottish Centre for Healthy Working Lives was established in 2005 as part of NHS Health Scotland. You will find several reference to this site in our own website’s section on Tackling Stigma As An Organisation.
Historically, Scotland has had a poor health record, though in recent years much has been done to turn this around. Our health is improving, and premature deaths from both accidents and disease are declining.
The role of work and workplaces in contributing to this progress has been fundamental, and this remains the case as we strive to achieve the levels of health enjoyed by most of our European neighbours.
The idea for the Scottish Centre for Healthy Working Lives emerged from the Scottish Executive’s strategy document ‘Healthy Working Lives: a plan for action’ which was published in August 2004.
