Havering Mind is a mental health charity in Havering.

We provide an array of services to the people of Havering, from all ages and backgrounds, who may be experiencing problems with their mental health.

We have recently lost funding for our biggest service – the Community Wellbeing Service (CWS) which supported hundreds of people across Havering.

Our Community Wellbeing service is our core service and makes up the very heart of everything we do in the community. In the majority of cases we are able to accept and help the individuals that are referred to this service and we are able to further signpost them to other services that we run and to other services in the borough.

The service involves a number of activities and open sessions that help to improve the mental wellbeing of the people involved, reducing isolation and encourage personal growth. It is this social interaction and inclusion that is a vital part of an individual’s journey to recovery.

Statistics show that 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem in their lifetime. However the amount of people affected does not just end with the individual experiencing the problem. It can have a dramatic effect on many of the people around that person, including family members and friends.

We believe that having this service is absolutely essential to the vulnerable people in Havering.
