Hull and East Yorkshire Mind
Health
We want to support people in the local area to improve and look after their mental health. Costs will cover travel, training and expenses.
About this cause
One in four people will experience a mental health problem every year. The impact of mental illness can be devastating. Not only for those directly affected but also their families, friends and loved ones. Hull and East Yorkshire Mind helps people improve their mental health. We raise the aspirations and confidence of people we work with to help them live as independently as possible. We help people to avoid mental ill-health and campaign to challenge stigma and discrimination whilst promoting positive mental health and wellbeing. Too many people don’t get the support they need. When we ask people why they come to us for help they say it's because there is nobody else that can help and they trust us. We also run a community centre at Bridlington Station, supporting many different groups.
How this cause brings people in the community together
Mental health problems can happen to anyone at any time. If it happened to you, you would want someone there to provide the support and help you need. Hull and East Yorkshire Mind wants to help as many people as possible. We will provide one to one support for people in the local community, helping them to recover, meet the goals they set for themselves, and to stay well.
