Carlisle Eden Mind is one of 130 local Minds across the country, who work to empower, educate and support people with mental health issues. We are an independent, self-funded mental health charity that operates in Carlisle, Eden and across Cumbria. As a local charity we match our services to meet the needs of the community we serve and campaign to improve the services available to those in need of mental health support, raise awareness and promote understanding.
We are Carlisle Eden Mind
Even though 1 in 4 people have mental health problems, most of us don’t get the help we need.
This has to change.
We’re Carlisle Eden Mind. We’re here to fight mental health. For support, for respect, for you.
We change minds across our community in Cumbria and wider, by making mental health an everyday priority. By standing up to the injustices – in healthcare, in work, in law – which make life harder for those of us with mental health problems. We support minds – offering help whenever you might need it through our information, advice and local services. And we connect minds. Bringing together an unstoppable network of individuals and communities – people who care about mental health to make a difference.
Join us in the fight for mental health. We won’t stop until everyone experiencing a mental health problem gets both support and respect.
