This report presents the findings of an annual survey of attitudes towards mental illness among adults in England. The aim of these surveys is to monitor public attitudes towards mental illness, and to track changes over time. 1,745 adults (aged 16+) were interviewed in England in January 2010. The questionnaire included a number of statements about mental illness. They covered a wide range of issues from attitudes towards people with mental illness, to opinions on services for people with mental health problems. Respondents were asked to indicate how much they agreed or disagreed with each statement. For analysis purposes the attitude statements were grouped into four themes – Fear and exclusion of people with mental illness; Understanding and tolerance of mental illness; Integrating people with mental illness into the community; and Causes of mental illness and the need for special services.

The clustering booklet is time-limited as work continues across the NHS to refine and validate both the assessment and the clusters.
