Abstract

This paper begins with an overview of Peter Huxley’s work across four areas: access to mental health care; understanding mental health and illness through a biosocial lens; social inclusion; and quality of life. Interconnected themes revealed in this body of research are then addressed, focusing particularly on: the commitment to interdisciplinarity; the value of conducting investigations which have demonstrable real-world application; measurement; and collegiality. The paper then moves to a personal reflection on Peter Huxley’s rock-solid support for growing a programme of mental health services research in Wales, before concluding with a forward-looking account of the lasting impact of his contribution
