Mind

Even though 1 in 4 people have mental health problems, most of us don’t get the help we need. This has to change. Mind fight for mental health. For support, for respect, for you.

They change minds across England and Wales by making mental health an everyday priority. By standing up to the injustices – in healthcare, in work, in law – which make life harder for those of us with mental health problems.

They support minds – by offering help whenever you might need it through our information, advice and local services.

And we connect minds. Bringing together an unstoppable network of individuals and communities – people who care about mental health to make a difference.
