Who We Arefor transforming mental health
Research has created better diagnosis and treatment for many physical conditions, but progress has been slower for mental illness. As the UK's leading mental health research charity, we believe it’s time to shatter the status quo.
With our community of supporters and a global scientific network, it’s time to transform mental health through research.
Our story
We can’t change what we don’t understand.
We already know a lot about IQ. We are learning ever more about the value of emotional intelligence or EQ. But our knowledge of Mental Health is way behind where it needs to be, and without research its just guesswork. We desperately need to improve our MQ! Through research into Mental Health we can develop better treatments and preventions so that everyone can have a healthy MQ.
