Research in context Photovoice study It is recognised that people with a serious mental illness (SMI) have more physical health problems and a shorter life span than the general population. The aim of this study, carried out in collaboration with the South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, was to understand what healthy living means to people living with a SMI and the barriers and facilitators to a healthier lifestyle. Using the photovoice methodology and focus groups, we found

that being mentally well was the most important thing. Healthy was described as “feeling complete”, “being busy” and “finishing my goals”. A key finding was the value of participation in the project and how taking photos of their day to day lives enabled participants to discuss their experiences and engage in activities that enhanced their wellbeing.
