At First Contact UK Mental Health, we stand on the frontline of advocacy, determined to transform the way mental health is understood, accessed, and supported across the UK.
Whether you’re here to seek help, stand in solidarity, or join the movement for systemic change, you’ve found a community built on respect, resilience, and unwavering purpose.
We believe every person deserves to be met with dignity and honesty – especially during their most vulnerable moments.
This isn’t just a service. It’s a promise.
Welcome to your first contact for fairness.
We support mental health by partnering with local groups, workplaces, and communities to create safe, inclusive spaces where people can speak openly, access help, and feel supported without judgement.
Real impact starts with genuine connection. By reaching people where they are, we’re breaking stigma, opening up dialogue, and making mental health support more accessible than ever
No one should face mental health challenges alone. That’s why we’re working across the UK to unite voices, spark conversations, and ensure support is available when and where it’s needed most.
We are a grassroots organisation driven by lived experience and fuelled by the pursuit of justice. Founded to challenge the inequality and bureaucracy that too often define mental health support, First Contact UK Mental Health is committed to breaking down barriers.
Our team combines strategic advocacy, governance expertise, and digital innovation to push forward practical solutions and elevate unheard voices. We champion transparency at every level, from Subject Access Request campaigns to community fundraising initiatives like The Fridge Walk, which highlight the realities of those navigating our current mental health landscape.
We’re not waiting for change. We’re making it happen.
The legal definition of a charitable organization varies between countries and in some instances regions of the country.
