MIND
DTA'S NOMINATED CHARITY
Having previously supported Mind between 2021 and 2023, the DTA is delighted to be supporting the charity once again as our Charity of the Year through to 2027.
One in four adults in England and Wales experience a mental health problem each year. Yet far too many wait months to get support, including for the most serious mental illnesses. Children and young people are also increasingly struggling, with inequality, social injustice and the cost of living crisis taking a significant toll on mental health.
Mind believes no one should have to face a mental health problem alone. The charity provides advice and support to empower people experiencing mental health problems, while campaigning to improve services, raise awareness and promote understanding. Through its network of local Minds, supporters, campaigners, fundraisers and volunteers, Mind continues to work towards tackling the mental health emergency.
We encourage you to get involved and help make a difference through our Just Giving page .
