Is 'Herefordshire Mind' and 'Mind' the same thing?

No. We’re part of the national Mind federation but we’re an independent charity, responsible for generating our own income. We rely on our supporters, alongside applying to charitable trusts and foundations to fund our own services. We respond to the needs of Herefordshire and adapt our services to meet these needs wherever we can. Monies donated to Herefordshire Mind, stay in Herefordshire.
