Hi, I’m Tony Weekes. I grew up in East London, the son of a consultant surgeon and a nurse. I have witnessed at first-hand the mental suffering of close family members. In trying to ease their suffering, I have tried, sometimes succeeded, other times failed, to surmount the problems caused by the current care system's serious lack of funding and the resulting lack of cohesion.
I am not a professional in the field of mental health, but I could not sit back and do nothing. So I founded Unity, a
grassroots movement to revolutionise mental health care in the United Kingdom through education, recognition and
intervention. The NHS is a world leader, Unity will also make mental health care here world renowned.
