About us

Who we are

Lancashire Mind is a local, independent mental health charity working to prevent poor mental health.

We support people experiencing common mental health conditions, such as anxiety and depression. We work with children and adults, offering universal services to help people improve their mental wellbeing, along with targeted services for people and communities at increased risk of experiencing poor mental health or facing mental health inequalities.

We’re working towards a Lancashire where everyone can have the best mental health and wellbeing possible. To achieve this, we:

Connect Minds through ongoing engagement and co-creation.

Change Minds by challenging stigma and increasing knowledge around mental health.

Support Minds by being a source of help, where, when, and how people need it.

Our culture and values

We value being:

Real - grounded in lived experience and making sure our work is relevant to Lancashire.

Bold - we're not afraid to demand better for people in Lancashire who need our help.

Caring - treating people with compassion and respect and being there for people and communities in Lancashire.

Open - working inclusively to tackle issues and being open to new ideas.

We believe that everyone can achieve good mental health and wellbeing and that resilience is the key to sustaining it. With 50% of mental health conditions developing before the age of 14, building resilience from an early age is central to the work we do.

We empower people in Lancashire to value and take care of their mental health. Our work ranges from 1:1 support for people facing multiple and complex barriers, to preventative and influencing work. We work in partnership with others to make mental wellbeing a priority.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

Lancashire Mind aims to be a great place to work for all our staff, regardless of background or characteristics. One thing we can do to work towards that goal is to ensure that our staff team is representative of the diverse communities across Lancashire. We particularly encourage applications from people in communities that face mental health inequalities and from anyone with experience of living with a mental health condition.
