Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Music Unity For Mental Health are excited to announce our next online Mental Health awareness and music event fundraiser - Reflective Frequencies - The Techno Phase Part 2 and we are absolutely delighted to be working together with one of London's finest and most exciting events, Dark Matter. We both have the same beliefs and values when it comes to mental health so it made sense to come together...Because together we ARE stronger

This time round we will be raising funds for the amazing charity The Mix who work with under young people up to 25 years old. We, along with Dark Matter both felt that more now than ever young people need support in this difficult times, what with the Covid crises and many not being at school or Universities and missing exams etc...They need somewhere to turn and The Mix is one charity that provides services for them to get help.
Approximately 1 in 4 people in the UK will experience a mental health problem each year.
In England, 1 in 6 people report experiencing a common mental health problem (such as anxiety and depression) in any given week.
About The Mix:
Life’s tough, we know that. It can throw a lot your way and make it hard to know what the hell to do with it all.
So, welcome to The Mix. Whether you’re 13, 25, or any age in between, we’re here to take on the embarrassing problems, weird questions, and please-don’t-make-me-say-it-out-loud thoughts you have. We give you the information and support you need to deal with it all. Because you can. Because you’re awesome.
We’ll connect you to experts and your peers who’ll give you the support and tools you need to take on any challenge you’re facing – for everything from homelessness to finding a job, from money to mental health, from break-ups to drugs.
We’re a free and confidential multi-channel service. That means that you choose how you access our support, without the worry of anyone else finding out. Whether it be through our articles and video content online or our phone, email, peer to peer and counselling services – we put the control in your hands. You can even volunteer with us too.
We want to be the first place young people turn to get support. Sometimes what you’re told at school or at home just doesn’t cut it. We’re here whenever you need us, wherever you are. We can ensure you have all the best information to make the right choices for yourself.
Life is hard, but support doesn’t have to be. We’ve got this.
Vision Mission Values:
What we do: The Mix is here to take on the embarrassing problems, weird questions, and please-don’t-make-me-say-it-out-loud thoughts that people under 25 have in order to give them the best support through our digital and phone services.
Our Vision is that all young people should be able to make informed choices about their physical and mental wellbeing so that they can live better lives.
Our Mission is to become the first point of contact for any young person seeking help or information on any subject wherever and whenever they need it.
