Our Mission
Our Mission
Mental health support in the UK is broken, and we refuse to accept a system that leaves people waiting for years. Our mission is clear, to overhaul the way mental health care is delivered by making support faster, easier, and truly effective. We are building a service that works alongside public systems, filling the gaps where traditional support falls short. Through one to one mentoring, workplace wellbeing, and community workshops, we are creating a future where no one is left struggling alone.
Our goal is simple: to rapidly reduce waiting times and ensure that when someone needs help, they receive it. Not years, not months, but days.
Our aim is to establish a service that seamlessly complements public services, offering crucial support to the 250,000 young people who currently don't have access to mental health care.

Live-aid Of Mental Health Support
We are on a mission to transform mental health support in the UK, just like Live Aid changed global humanitarian aid. We believe no one should have to wait years for help, so we are making support faster, easier, and more accessible. Through one to one mentoring, workplace wellbeing sessions, and community workshops, we provide real, practical support that meets people where they are, when they need it most.
We are building a nationwide network of support by working with schools, businesses, healthcare providers, and local authorities. By reinvesting profits from workplace wellbeing services into our foundation, we can fund free sessions for children, young people, and vulnerable adults. This means the more organisations we work with, the more people we can help, creating a sustainable and growing support system for those who need it most.
This is more than a service, it is a movement for change. We are raising awareness, challenging a broken system, and making mental health support a right, not a privilege. Just like Live Aid brought people together for a cause, we are uniting communities to ensure no one is left behind.
Support Us, Supporting Them
