About the Mental Health Foundation

Founded in 1949, the Mental Health Foundation is a leading UK charity that provides information, carries out research, campaigns and works to improve services for anyone affected by mental health problems, whatever their age and wherever they live.

Our vision

Our vision is a mentally healthy world where people are free from the suffering caused by mental illness.

 

Our mission

We aim to help people survive, recover from and prevent mental health problems. We do this by:

 

  • learning what makes and keeps people mentally well

  • communicating our findings to a wide range of people

  • turning our research into practical solutions that make a difference to people's lives 

 

60 years of the Foundation

2009 is our diamond jubilee year. Throughout the last six decades we have pioneered new ways of looking at mental health and how to improve the lives of people experiencing mental illness.
