Community Advice and Support Line
Local residents can contact Community Wellbeing Hub for support on 0300 247 0050
We were established in 1998 by a group of local people with lived experience of mental ill health who wanted to provide information and activities for people in the community. Since then we have worked hard to develop what we do in response to local needs.
Many of our current staff have lived experience of facing mental health challenges; we have a greater understanding of the community that we support.
We are in contact with over 3,400 people annually to improve, prevent and maintain mental health and wellbeing.
While we are affiliated to national Mind, we receive no direct funding from them. We are a self – sustaining, independent locally run charity.
Live, Learn and Share encapsulates our core services which empower people to engage or participate in our early intervention work to prevent mental ill health and improve their own wellbeing.
We host over 12 online and face-to-face wellbeing support groups, offering you space to try a new activity, and speak openly about your mental health and wellbeing. Find Out More
Mind’s online community It’s a powerful thing to connect with someone else over shared experiences. Side by Side is an online community where you can listen, share and be heard. Find Out More

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay.
We believe individuals should not have to fight for the mental health support that so many of us need to survive.
Here are three ways you can support better mental health for all in Bath & North East Somerset this #WMHD:
💬 Start a conversation and speak out. Even the smallest check in with a loved one can make a huge difference. Even a small conversation around mental health inequality can make a big change. Take a look at our latest posts for tips on starting a conversation about mental health and inequality.
🗣 Support Bath Mind's services. If you can spare a donation, your funds will go straight back into providing life-changing mental health services for each and every person in B&NES who needs support.
🎉 Join us. Looking for an opportunity to find out more about Bath Mind? Come along to our fundraiser next week at Komedia Bath with Raise the Bar for a showcase of Bath Mind's services, and a night of music of arts in aid of your local mental health charity.
You can find out more on about #WMHD21 and donate at our website: www.bathmind.org.uk/get-involved/wmhd21/
