In our second episode of the Primary Share podcast series, Listen Up! community reporter Mark talks to Dr Caroline Shulman, leading clinician and researcher in homeless and inclusion health, about his experiences of accessing primary care. 

Together they look back on Mark’s experiences of homelessness and severe mental ill-health. Mark explains the difference dual diagnosis has made to his life and speaks up about what else needs to change in primary care settings. 

Caroline and Mark discuss HHPA, Groundswell’s Homeless Health Peer Advocacy service, and IAPT, NHS Talking Therapies.
