About Mind


Tags: Mental health Health & Medical Advocacy, awareness & campaigning

Even though 1 in 4 people have mental health problems, most of us don’t get the help we need.

This has to change.

We’re Mind. We’re here to fight mental health. For support for respect, for you.

We 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.

We support minds – 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.

Join us in the fight for mental health. We won’t stop until everyone experiencing a mental health problem gets both support and respect.

When you're experiencing a mental health problem, supportive and reliable information can change your life. That's what we do. We empower people to understand their mental health and the choices available to them through the following:

Our Infoline, which offers confidential help for the price of a local call.
Our Legal Line, which provides information on mental health related law to the public, service users, family members, carers, mental health professionals and mental health advocates
Our award-winning information, certified by the PIF Tick
