Welcoming Mind to Hackney

I had the privilege of opening the new offices for Mind in the City, Hackney and Waltham Forest’s new home in Haggerston.

Mind is a community-focused charity offering a wide range of services to support people with mental health difficulties. I met with members of their team and am impressed by the positive outcomes of their work. I have highlighted their work with the Minister for Social Security and Disability as an excellent example of how community-oriented practices can work alongside existing health systems to bring about better outcomes for mental health patients, including helping people get in and stay in work.
