Story
The winter season can bring with it more than just cold weather and the winter blues.
Behind closed doors, people are fighting battles nobody else can see. Anxious thoughts keep them awake, loneliness lingers and the pressures of the season mount up.
Our services support people at every stage of their mental health journey, where and when it's needed most.
Whether that be a confidential phone call, a weekly peer support group or a safe space to talk in a mental health crisis.
For every £1 donated, 90p is spent delivering mental health support like this for people of all ages in Bradford District and Craven.

A message from Helen Davey, CEO:
Bradford District and Craven Mind are working in more places than ever before, from community hubs to hospitals offering mental health and wellbeing support to people where and when they need it.
Last year 18,541 people were supported by our brilliant team and almost half of these people accessed support for the first time.
This statistic in itself tells a frightening story about the challenges which exist locally and the impact of an ongoing cost of living crisis on an area already suffering with high levels of poverty and deprivation.
Not only are we supporting more people than ever, but our teams also regularly report that the people they see today have a greater complexity of need than in the past.
Help us to meet the increasing demand for services by making a donation to our appeal.
