Sport in Mind is a leading mental health sports charity. Our mission is to transform mental health through sport and our trailblazing work harnesses the power of sport to inspire, educate, and promote good mental health.

Since formation in 2010, Sport in Mind’s long-term partnership with the NHS has enabled us to transform the lives of over 31,000 people struggling with mental health challenges. While research shows that being active is clinically proven to improve mental health, sedentary living remains prevalent among children and adults with mental health problems caused by many issues (eg non-supportive environments, low levels of confidence and self-esteem, social anxiety, mental health challenges).

Sport in Mind’s unique UK-based programmes are designed to combat these barriers and champion the benefits of physical activity to make sport accessible to all.

Southern Area Hospice Services care for patients and their families living primarily in the Southern Trust area, offering specialist palliative and end of life care. The main aim of the hospice is to help patients who have received a palliative diagnosis live well with their condition. They also offer ongoing support to patients’ families and carers and all services are provided free of charge.

This year, it will cost around £6 million to run Southern Area Hospice and provide the highest standard of specialist palliative care to local people living with complex, life-limiting conditions. Of that, they must raise £4 million, 65% of our total income, through fundraising alone. That’s the equivalent of £335,000 each month, £77,000 each week, £11,000 every day or £460 every hour.

Together, we can make sure no one faces serious illness alone.
