Mind

Homepage

Mind has been speaking out for better mental health for 60 years and is the leading mental health charity in England and Wales. We work for a better life for everyone with experience of mental or emotional distress.

Mental health problems are common and can happen to anyone
Mental illness affects people from every ethnic background and walk of life - 1 in 4 people experience mental distress every year in the UK, and a third of all GP visits relate to mental health. Depression and anxiety, two of the most common forms of mental distress, can severely affect peoples everyday lives and careers, and place a strain on close relationships.

Minds vision
Mind believes everyone is entitled to the care they need. Our vision is of a society that promotes and protects good mental health for all, and that treats people with experience of mental distress fairly, positively, and with respect.

Why we need your support
Mind is an independent organisation and relies on fundraising and donations to continue our work. We campaign to influence Government policy and legislation, work closely with the media and are the first source of unbiased, independent mental health information via our publications, website www.mind.org.uk and phone service MindinfoLine 0845 766 0163.

We help countless numbers of people every week through our work - your help and support will make a real difference.
