Mental Health Foundation
The Mental Health Foundation [1] is a UK charity that informs and influences the development of evidence-based mental-health policy at the national and local government level. It helps people to access information about the steps they can take to look after their own mental health and empowers people to take action when problems are at an early stage. This work is informed by the Mental Health Foundation’s long history of working directly with people living with or at risk of developing mental-health problems [2]. The Mums and Babies in Mind project, for example, supports local leaders in four areas of England (Blackpool, Haringey, Southend and Gloucestershire) to improve care and quality of life for mums with mental-health problems during pregnancy and the first year of life, and their babies. In each area, the Foundation aims to identify the barriers to service improvement, and to inform and support effective solutions. It is hoped this will result in good-quality, evidence-based care pathways including information, support and treatment, at the right time, for all mums who need it [3].
