This article discusses 10 barriers to the involvement of service users/survivors in learning and teaching about mental health in higher education, suggesting ways of overcoming each. The paper is addressed to mental health trainers and educators, some of whom will be mental health service users/survivors. The involvement of carers/relatives in learning and teaching is not covered in this article, thought it is acknowledged that they have an important role to play and some of what we have written will have relevance to their involvement.
