What do local Minds in Wales do?
We have a local Mind in every single local authority in Wales. And we also have a local Mind in each of the 7 local Health Board footprints.
Every local Mind is different. Services are based on what communities need. This means what’s available may vary from one local Mind to another. They might offer:
- Therapy and counselling
- Urgent support if you're in crisis
- Information and advice on benefits, housing and legal rights
"I can hand on heart say my local Mind not only kept me alive, they kept me alive and in my home with my children. I now know I deserve to be happy."

How do Mind Cymru and Welsh local Minds work together?
When Mind Cymru and local Minds work together, we can reach more people and build a healthier Wales. We share knowledge and ideas. We support and invest in each other's work.
Our 3 year strategic plan, One Mind in Wales, sets out how we'll work together as a network to become more inclusive and effective.
Together, we can reach every corner of Wales, offering services and support for people living with mental health problems.

Being independent charities, local Minds raise their own funds. Each local Mind has a board of trustees, volunteering their time to set the organisational strategy.
You can help your local Mind to do more by fundraising. Giving locally means your donation will support your community.
