Mind in Gwent

Mind in Gwent We want to create a mentally healthy society. Mind in Gwent is member of the Local Mind Associations in England and Wales.

Through our information, services and campaigns, we tackle stigma, barriers and isolation so that everyone can access mental health support when they need it. Mind in Gwent is a mental health organisation formed by the merger of Newport Mind Association, Mind Monmouthshire and Torfaen and Blaenau Gwent Mind. With offices in Newport, Abergavenny, Pontypool, and Brynmawr, we use our shared experience and knowledge to help people in our diverse communities with their mental health struggles. We provide a wide range of support and services working with diverse communities across Gwent to help reach those in our communities in need of support. Our services include Wellbeing and Counselling services for adults, Children and Young People’s services (including group and one on one support in and outside of schools), Housing, Tenancy and Supported Living services, warm hubs and rural working/farmers’ support.

When you think of spaghetti, you picture twists, turns, and tangles, not a neat, straight line. Mental health is very much the same. Life doesn’t always follow a predictable path.

We understand that everyone’s journey is unique, and we’re here to help you find your way. Your first step is speaking to our Information & Advice Worker, who acts as the gateway into our services. From there, we can connect you with the right support—whether that’s practical advice, emotional guidance, or community-based resources.

Tel: 01873 858275 or email info@mindmonmouthshire.org.uk or visit our website.
