“This is a fantastic small local charity that makes a big impact in the community it supports. I have seen the difference its support makes to local people with mental health issues. Managing mental health has never been more important, particularly when we consider what we have all gone through in the last 18 months, and I am really proud to be involved".

Become a friend of Mental Health Resource & help improve wellbeing in our community.

Your regular gift will help us support the most vulnerable people in our community and reach the most isolated at this time.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on people’s mental health in Kent. Some of our clients, including health and other frontline workers, people living alone, the elderly and those with pre-existing mental health conditions, have been particularly affected.  Faced with new realities of working from home, temporary unemployment, home-schooling of children, and lack of physical contact with other family members, friends and colleagues, some are more vulnerable than ever.

We are supporting nearly 1000 clients with complex, enduring mental health conditions including anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar, borderline personality disorder, psychosis, Schizophrenia and self-harm. 

How is Mental Health Resource working towards improved mental wellbeing for everyone?

• Our vision is to see improved mental wellbeing for everyone and our projects are designed to make people feel supported, valued and connected.
