About us
Mind's Mission
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.
The need and experience of people with mental distress drive our work and we make sure those who influence change, hear their voice. Our independence gives us the freedom to stand up and speak out on the real issues that affect daily lives.
We provide information and support, campaign to improve policy and attitudes and in partnership with independent local Mind associations, develop local services. We do all this to make it possible for people who experience mental distress to live full lives and play their full part in society.
Our Aims
- Promoting the views of local people with experience of mental distress.
- Promoting positive mental health and social inclusion and challenging discrimination.
- Working for improvements in mental health services locally in conjunction with those who use them.
- Developing quality services which reflect expressed need and diversity.
