SANE is a national charity working to improve the quality of life of anyone affected by mental illness and ensure individual levels of treatment, care and compassion.

SANE provides a specialist and practical solution to the challenge of mental illness:

SERVICES: Providing emotional support, care and information for people with mental health problems, their carers and families.

RESEARCH: Investigating the causes, nature and impact of mental health problems through neuroscientific, psychological and social research.

CAMPAIGNING: Raising awareness; combating stigma; educating and working to improve mental health services. 

Our services are available 365 days of the year during evenings and weekends when people can feel at their lowest.

“Without SANE I would have no one else to turn to. Only they have been there to listen. In my darkest hours SANE really has been a lifeline.”

Regular monthly payments are a vital part of maintaining our life-saving work.  Please help us by making a donation. Each £10 enables SANE to give emotional support to someone in crisis.

Your involvement produces positive results by allowing us to:

  • Reduce the impact of mental illness
  • Increase the understanding of mental illness
  • Give people a voice
