Rethink Mental Illness
Walsall, UK
Across England, we support 60,000 people a year through crises, helping them to live independently and realise they are not alone. Advice and information When mental illness first hits you or your family, it can be hard to know who or what to trust. We provide expert, accredited advice and information to everyone affected by mental health problems, and give people clear, relevant information on everything from treatment and care, to benefits and employment rights. Services and groups We have over 200 mental health services and 150 support groups across England. From psychological therapies and Crisis and Recovery Houses to peer support groups and housing services, we directly help thousands of people a year, all over the country. Over 90% of our service users say they are respected, listened to, and get the right kind of support. Campaigning We campaign nationally for policy change, and locally for the support people need. We have successfully changed the law to improve life for millions of people with mental health problems, and we are changing public attitudes through the Time to Change campaign, in partnership with Mind.
