Psychiatric Bulletin | In conversation with Rosalind Ramsay
September 1996 / Psychiatric Bulletin
In 1986, award-winning investigative journalist Marjorie Wallace wrote a series of articles, "The Forgotten Illness", which brought into sharp focus the terrible plight of people with schizophrenia in Britain.
This campaign led to the formation of SANE (Schizophrenic: A National Emergency) in 1986, a charity whose aims are to change attitudes toward mental illness, provide care and initiate research. Since becoming SANE's Chief Executive in 1989, she has recruited a network of key international figures from the fields of medicine, science, business and industry to support the SANE cause.
