West Cornwall Mind

Home

As many as 1 in 4 of us in Cornwall will experience a mental health problem at some time in our lives.

West Cornwall Mind provides help, support and information in your local community.

West Cornwall Mind was founded in 1987, in the district of Penwith. We now cover Kerrier and Penwith. We are a Registered Charity, separate from but affiliated to National Mind. Our aim is to deliver the best possible support to people who have or are recovering from mental health issues.

The support offered is structured, yet informal to enable people to regain their confidence and self esteem and to establish their own social networks. We also aim to follow and promote Mind’s philosophy in our work in the community.

We are funded by Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Primary Care Trust and through individual donations, small local funding grants and fundraising events. Our services are provided by three members of staff and many trained volunteers

New Allotment for West Cornwall Mind. Please see our latest newsletter for more details.

We would like to thank our present volunteers for their valuable support. Our scheme could not provide many of its activities without the committment of local people who volunteer as little as two hours a fortnight.
