Become a Volunteer
An important part of recovery for those with mental illness is sharing experiences to help others. We recognise that personal experience matters, so if you eventually wish to provide support you could have the opportunity to become a volunteer. You can also use your expertise to join the panel for recruiting new volunteers to the centre. Speak to a member of staff to discuss your options.

Everyone's involved
Here at North Lincolnshire Mind we try to involve our service users in service delivery and decision making as much as possible. That is why we regularly hold open meetings for our service users. This is the opportunity for everyone to voice their ideas, concerns, to get latest information about mental health, new services available and our new projects as well as any future planning. We believe that when well informed our service users can help us run our charity, that is why the minutes of an executive committee meetings and the report of annual general meeting are available to everyone in the reception area.
