Why Mind?
Mind is the leading mental health charity in England and Wales and by joining our team you will enable us to continue to provide support to the 1 in 4 people who experience mental distress in their life times.
In response to demand Mind operates a legal advice line to provide information about mental health and related law to people experiencing mental distress, families, carers, advocates and other professionals. It costs us £500 to keep the legal line open for one day.
