Thank you for your interest in fundraising for North East Wales Mind!
Our fundraisers are the heart and soul of our charity. Whether you raise £50, £500, or £5,000, your contribution directly supports our mental health services in Flintshire and Wrexham.
Although we are affiliated with the national Mind charity, like all local Minds we are responsible for raising our own funds, creating and delivering our own services, and organising our own events. Without the help of amazing fundraisers like you, we would not be able to do any of this.
As someone with lived experience of mental health, I was really keen to raise money for North East Wales Mind
so that their charity can help ensure no one has to struggle with their mental health alone.
