Since March 1993, the Department of Health has placed a set of questions on TNS’ Face-to-Face Consumer Omnibus. From 1993 to 1997 the questions were asked on an annual basis, thereafter they have been asked every third year up until 2003. The current 2007 survey follows four years after the previous survey. These surveys serve as a tracking mechanism, and in this report, the most recent results are compared with those from previous years. The respondents in the surveys were presented with a number of statements about mental illness. They covered a wide range of issues from attitudes towards, and perceptions of people with mental illness, to opinions on services provided for people with mental health problems.
