Our Vision
Imroc exists outside traditional systems to challenge and improve existing paradigms and generate new cultures and practices around mental health. We want to help create systems and communities that provide hope, control and opportunity to all of us, and enable us all to live well in an inclusive and equitable society.
Our Mission
We are committed to the idea of liberation for people, for services, and for the systems we move through every day.
This means naming what harms, challenging what excludes, and creating the conditions for something better. Liberation isn’t a destination. It’s a process one that takes courage, care, and collective effort.
Through ongoing conversation and co-production, we aim to shift how emotional distress is understood: From a narrow medical lens to one that’s person-centred, culturally grounded, trauma-responsive, and recovery-led.
Our Values
Belonging: which includes fostering strong relationships, based on trust, compassion and loyalty. Maintaining connection to our own lived and life experiences and acknowledging the importance of community and opportunity in routes to healing and growth.
Openness: being prepared to reflect, learn and be changed by new ideas and relationships. Being curious about what we know and what we believe we know. Being honest and transparent in our relationships and our actions.
Quality: to hold ourselves accountable to high standards. To consistently work with integrity and aspire to be the best we can be. To know the importance of artistry in achieving quality, acknowledging that any work that supports liberation is a craft which demands creativity, vision and imagination, as much as it does science, knowledge and discipline.
Equity: to celebrate and value difference and create systems which welcome this. To work to remove barriers, both within ourselves and within society and systems which exclude, oppress and stigmatise. To work to enable lived experience voices to be heard and to redistribute power and control to enable this.
