Who we are

Despite advances in science and understanding, being diagnosed with a mental illness can still have a devastating impact on an individual's life. Aside from the illness itself, stigma, discrimination, exclusion and isolation all contribute towards hindering recovery and feed a vicious circle of illness, isolation, relapse and recurring illness.

York Mind is an independent provider of high quality recovery-focussed mental health services in York and its surrounding area. Our wide range of services helps up to 100 people as they recover from a variety of mental health problems.

At York Mind we believe that with the right support, everybody, regardless of how serious their diagnosis is, can make progress towards recovery and that by working towards recovery and integration, even for those with severe mental health problems we can make a significant positive difference to the future health and wellbeing of our beneficiaries.

We are a charitable company formed as the result of a merger between Our Celebration and York & District Mind.

Focusing primarily on the needs of those with moderate to severe mental ill-health we offer a ‘Pathway' approach that enables individuals to progress through our service and out into mainstream activity.
