She said, “Mental illness can affect anyone, at any one time 1 in 4 people will be affected by mental illness, and like a physical illness it can strike anyone at anytime. MindWise is there not only to support anyone who does develop an illness but also to educate and inform the public as to how they can protect their own mental health. As a newly formed independent charity, this year more than ever MindWise needs the generous support of local people to be able to continue offering these services”.
