Rethink Mental Illness News

There are over 3 million people in this country affected by mental illness - people who urgently need support and information, hope and understanding. But people have told us it sometimes takes years to find us. Years of feeling isolated, confused and frustrated.

That simply must change. So we’ve looked in great detail at how we can be more recognisable for what we do, and what we stand for.

Now we are Rethink Mental Illness – the name makes it very clear what we do and who we are for. And we have a brand new look – it’s bold, friendly and positive. Many things haven’t changed.

If you want to find out more about why and how we’ve changed our look, read these Frequently Asked Questions.

Do you use Facebook? If so we need you now more than ever.

We want supporters to join us on Facebook and tell family and friends about us - especially if they've never heard of us before, but even if they have, now's the time to give them a little reminder.

Or, if you don’t use Facebook, why not spread the word via email?

Remember, for every friend who you tell about Rethink Mental Illness, they can then tell their friends – and that way we will reach people who desperately need us.

You are a part of this - what you can do from your computer right now could help transform someone’s life. So please, take action, and tell people about Rethink Mental Illness.

Thank you!
