About Us:
Since 1949, the Mental Health Foundation has been the UK’s leading charity for everyone’s mental health.
Our vision is for a world with good mental health for all. With prevention at the heart of what we do, we aim to find and address the sources of mental health problems so that people and communities can thrive.
We will drive change towards a mentally healthy society for all, and support communities, families and individuals to live mentally healthier lives, with a particular focus on those at greatest risk.
The Foundation is the home of Mental Health Awareness Week.
Our approach is:
Tell the world
- We publish studies and reports on what protects mental health and the causes of poor mental health and how to tackle them.
Find solutions
- We test and evaluate the best approaches to improving mental health in communities and then roll them out as widely as possible.
Inform and empower
- We give advice to millions of people on mental health. We are most well-known for running Mental Health Awareness Week across the UK each year. We enable mentally healthier lives through public information and engagement.
Change policy and practice
- We propose solutions and campaign for change to address the underlying cause of poor mental health.
Build a strong foundation
- We aim to become an exemplar employer and aim to continue to build an organisation that is financially sustainable and thriving.
We have pioneered change for over 70 years and we are not afraid to challenge the status quo. Come join us!
