Local Minds
Each local Mind is unique. They understand the needs of their community and they tailor their services to match. Services include talking therapies, peer support, advocacy, crisis care, employment and housing support.
As well as delivering services local Minds work to further National Mind's mission.
They also:
- get involved in planning local mental health services
- campaign on local mental health issues and join in with our national campaigns
- help to change attitudes towards mental health in their area.
Local Minds are responsible for their own funding. They are funded by donations, grants and income from services they deliver on behalf of local councils, the NHS and private organisations. Some local Minds also receive funding from Mind through a grant fund, which local Minds can apply to annually. Most local Minds provide services to people free of charge, but some may charge a small fee. You can raise money for your local Mind by contacting them directly
