Story
OUR CHARITY
Mental Health UK is a network of four national charities working across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland to improve the lives of people with mental illness, and to support carers. Together Rethink Mental Illness, Support In Mind Scotland, Hafal, and MindWise have worked for over 40 years to provide services, information, and advice to support anyone affected by mental illness."
Together, we will establish the UK’s first combined Mental Health and Money Advice Service. It will offer practical, personal guidance and information for any member of the public who is worried about their finances as a result of mental illness, or vice versa.
- £10 could allow an advice worker to answer a call from someone in desperate need of advice and support with their mental health and money problems.
- £20 could help us establish and maintain a unique new online website, providing information so people can get advice on mental health and money 24 hours a day
- £100 could help train an advice worker to provide one-to-one support.
- £500 could help fund 3 advice workers for a day, providing people with the tools to support them and take their first steps to managing their mental health and money.
- £1,500 could fund an advice worker for 2 weeks, helping us to answer calls and online queries from people, often in desperate need of support, helping them to find a way forward.
The 2017 CB Challenge will be another rewarding opportunity for colleagues to have a fun day out, while contributing to this great cause.
