This year we are proud to be raising money for the charity MIND.

As a charity they focus on mental health by offering information and advice to anyone suffering.

Their range of services include supported housing, crisis helplines, drop-in centres, employment and training schemes, counselling and befriending.

They also work to raise public awareness and understanding of issues relating to mental health. Now more than ever support is needed as the coronavirus pandemic is having a huge impact on mental health:

• The suicide rate has tripled.
• Domestic abuse killings have doubled.
• Calls to a helpline have increased by 50%. ​

At UEA MedSoc we hope that you will participate in the charity events we organise throughout the year to help our efforts and support this important cause.
