MNEE Mind will be collaboratively working with the school to ensure a robust referral process and you will be working closely with the Well-being Team based at the school. Additionally, you will receive support from the Counselling Manager at MNEE Mind to ensure you are working within the ethical framework of your registered body.
We are a local charity, working within the local area who believes no one should face a mental health problem alone. “Our mission is to support and empower people experiencing an emotional or mental health condition by building on their personal hopes and aspirations. This is achieved by identifying and responding to community needs in order to deliver an effective and efficient system or community base services.”
