Time to Change

Mental health problems are common - but nearly nine out of ten people who experience them say they face stigma and discrimination as a result. This can be even worse than the symptoms themselves.

Time to Change is a campaign by Mind and Rethink Mental Illness which aims to challenge mental health stigma and discrimination.

Volunteering with organisations like Time to Change can improve your understanding of mental health and avoid discrimination.

There are lots of things you can do to help and spread the word about Time to Change. For example, you can take part in a Time to Change campaign, or become a Time to Change Champion,  who campaigns to end mental health discrimination in your community. It could be as simple as getting people such as friends, family or colleagues, to talk about mental health in a supportive environment.
