Whether it's the financial costs associated with buying gifts, the gloomy winter evenings, or spending the festive season alone, there can be a number of triggers for peoples mental health during this time of year.

As we head into 2023, it is important to note that 1 in 6 people in England will face a mental health problem each week and it is vital that they receive the necessary support to deal with this. Despite progress, negative stigma still exists about mental health and York Mind will always be here to stand up against that, and support those experiencing these struggles.

Whether you want to make a one-off donation, begin a monthly donation, or set up a fundraising activity with your friends or colleagues, any money donated is greatly appreciated.

Please take this as a reminder to take time for yourself this festive season. We wish you all the best for the year ahead.

With love,

York Mind
