We provide information and support to empower anyone experiencing mental health issues to improve and maintain their wellbeing. We campaign to improve services, raise awareness, and promote understanding. We promote and protect good mental health and wellbeing for everyone in Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale, Bury and N.E.

We’re your local Mind!

We’re an independent charity supporting our local community. We raise our own funds and make our own decisions about how we use them.

This means we can deliver the support that best suits our community in the Borough of Rochdale.

We’re not alone. We’re proud to be part of a network of around 100 local Minds across England, Wales and the Channel Islands. We all work together under the Mind umbrella.

Together, we’re fighting to make sure no mind is left behind.

Successful applicants will be expected to undergo a Disclosure and Barring Service Check (DBS) at a level appropriate to the role. A previous conviction does not necessarily preclude employment.
