Welcome to MHM

Back in 1984, a small group of North East carers joined forces to form their own mental health Charity which they hoped would provide quality mental health services for the relatives and friends they cared for. 22 years on, their aspirations have been realised and Mental Health Matters has flourished into a leading UK Mental Health charity serving in excess of 1000 people every day.

At the heart of our work is the knowledge that providing real choice for an ever changing variety of needs is an essential ingredient for the well being of everyone using our services. Everybody has mental health needs and each person has their own individual journey. Our belief in a person-centred approach has been proven to assist people on their road to recovery.
