West Sussex Mind have been working hard to look after peoples mental health for over 50 years. During that time, they have evolved and expanded their support and how they work.

It is important to them that anyone in West Sussex is able to get support. So their work includes outreach to ensure those who most need us know about us and feel able to ask for help. They provide support for children, young people, adults, older people, parents, carers and families, and specialist support for the LGBTQIA+ and resettled refugee communities.

If you are struggling with your mental wellbeing, they are there for you.

Mental health in the UK is facing a critical situation with rising demand, as 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem of some kind each year in England (e.g., anxiety/depression). NHS services are under extreme pressure, with a 33% increase in referrals from 2019 to 2023, leading to long waiting times and rising rates of mental illness among young people, now affecting over 1 in 5 children.

West Sussex Mind have waiting lists to access our services - and with our walking we hope we can help them be there for people who so desperately need their help!

Please help us support them
