About us
Who we are
MindFood is a small Ealing charity with a big vision: to be the Natural Health Service for the mind in West London.
Our services help people to tackle stress, anxiety and depression in a natural way, by offering free food-growing and mindfulness courses across 2 sites in Ealing. Our courses are a fun balance of learning how to grow food, combined with tips and techniques to improve your wellbeing. As well as learning lots about gardening, participants are introduced to psychoeducational tools such as mindfulness, 5 ways to wellbeing and nutritional advice.
For a small organisation we punch above our weight in terms of impact and awareness. We support over 100 people a year with their mental health recovery and we know that since completing a MindFood course participants agreed or strongly agreed that:
o 93% feeling calmer,
o 93% feeling greater sense of purpose,
o 85% feeling less isolated,
o 89% feeling happier,
o 61% feeling physically fitter,
o 64% are sleeping better
o 82% are eating more healthier foods
o 28% of participants are seeing their GP less
