Grants

One in four people experiences a mental health problem; many more are touched by its impact.

Mental illness is a complex experience; often people face barriers such as stigna and exclusion, as well as trying to cope with a very debilitating condition.

SANE has three organisational aims:

• Reducing the impact of mental illness
• Increasing knowledge about mental illness to improve treatment and care
• Increasing understanding to influence policy; giving people affected by mental illness a voice
