I lost a dear friend Sally, when she was unable to get through some very challenging times in her life, which is something that everybody can relate to at some stage in their life.

It's often charities like Cornwall Mind that can make the difference between a positive outcome of getting past pivotal moments like this or a devasting one if people can't find a light when they are in a dark place.

Ever since losing Sally from my life I've been drawn to Cornwall Mind as a charity that can make a vital, positive contribution to people's mental health and wellbeing.

I've since found out first hand how passionate, dedicated, and caring the team of staff and volunteers at Cornwall Mind are.
