Do you want to fundraise for Mind in Somerset?
The support we provide for those suffering from poor mental health across Somerset would not be possible without the generosity of people who fundraise for us. The money you raise will be spent here in Somerset to help even more people who are experiencing poor mental health. We’re incredibly grateful to have you on our team, whether you’re baking up a storm or want to tackle a marathon.
Although affiliated with national Mind, we are an independent charity, responsible for raising our own funds. We really appreciate your support which enables us to continue the vital work we do to support people’s mental health and wellbeing.
We’re here to support you!
However you decide to fundraise for us, we are here to support you. Our fundraising team are on hand to provide you with tips and advice-contact them via [email protected].
We can provide t-shirts, collection buckets and promotional items for events. Please also understand although we will whenever possible attend any fundraising events, as a small charity we may not be able to.
Setting up a fundraising page
One of the easiest ways to collect funds and share your fundraising activity is by creating a Just Giving or Virgin Money Giving page. When doing this make sure you select Mind in Somerset and not just Mind to ensure the money comes to us. If you are unsure please visit our Just Giving and Virgin Money Giving pages.

FREE ONLINE INTRODUCTION TO MINDFULNESS
Mind In Somerset has teamed up with retired GP Dr Miranda Beavis of Somerset Mindfulness, to offer stillness and simplicity in this complicated world.
Mindfulness teaches us to find a sense of stability in the midst of even the most difficult of circumstances. It enables us to make wiser choices and helps us cultivate kinder relationships with ourselves and others.
These courses consist of 4X one hour sessions over a four week period. We will talk about what mindfulness means, and think about how it can be used to support us in our lives and deal with stressful situations.
Everyone aged 17+ is welcome, and no previous experience is required.
The course includes downloadable practices and handouts.
Starting: Tuesday 11th August 7-8pm and be delivered via Zoom.
Please register your interest, simply by emailing [email protected] before 5pm on Monday 10th August.
