Earlier this year, the Foundation started its long-term partnerships with mental health charity Mind and homelessness charity St Mungos. Together, over the next three years, we will help reduce the number of people rough sleeping in the UK and support the sustained recovery for people who have experience homelessness. And with Mind, we will work to raise awareness to stamp out the stigma surrounding mental health and help fund the expansion of Minds information services which exists to empower, inform and offer support.
Given the current circumstances, both of these causes are likely to be more prominent following the worlds recovery from Coronavirus. So far, this year the Foundation has donated nearly £114,000 to these charities which includes an annual donation each of £55,000 and Mace employee fundraising with match funding applied.
