When you don’t know where else to turn, it was just a lifeline for me – Parents’ Helpline caller
I had nowhere to turn and the advice and guidance was an amazing start to a long process… without the Helpline I wouldn’t of gone on and got the support my daughter needed… She now has a care worker who visits her once a week to support her. – Parents’ Helpline caller
The person I spoke to was amazing. By the end of the phone call I felt like she was a friend. She seemed terribly empathetic as well as sympathetic. She could really understand everything we were going through. – Parents’ Helpline caller
YoungMinds has given me a second chance in life, a purpose and a new found confidence. Volunteering has saved my life – Young Activist
The skills that I have picked up at YoungMinds have definitely helped me in my personal life – I feel more confident taking up positions of responsibility at work as well as seeking more opportunities that involve public speaking – Young Activist
It was the first moment I felt like I had real influence. It was special because, when you have depression, you don’t feel like much of what you do has an impact on the world. Being given a purpose for something I was passionate about was monumental. It was a reason to live. – Young Activist
