What our Supporters say
"Mates in Mind has generated some extremely articulate advocacy, presenting sensible, grounded attitudes to these issues in a way that overcomes the reserve and suspicion that has prevented effective strategies being deployed in the past. The individuals involved in Mates in Mind, and the people supporting it, are high calibre folks who’ve brought a no-nonsense and assertive voice to the issue, speaking to ordinary people in a way that they can understand and relate to, cutting through the stigmatised approach of previous years. Mates in Mind has provided insightful leadership and inspirational advocacy on this important issue and at Xmo Strata, we’re committed and enthusiastic supporters of its work.”
Steve Martin, XMO Strata
What our Supporters say
"Through the support we have received from Mates in Mind, and the commitment to mental health we’ve been able to demonstrate to our team, partnering with this charity is one of the best things we’ve done for Catsurveys as a whole. By using the resources provided by Mates in Mind we have been able to raise awareness on mental health issues and the stigmas associated with them through the entirety of our team. Our management team have benefitted from the organisation tools provided, and it is clear from the feedback we’ve received from our staff that employee satisfaction and wellbeing has increased. Communication concerning mental health has improved and we’ve seen a reduction in absence due to stress-related illnesses and mental health conditions."
Jodi Turpin, Catsurveys
