About us

We are Cambridgeshire, Peterborough and South Lincolnshire Mind (CPSL Mind), a values-based, mental health charity. We are a highly collaborative organisation, providing a range of strengths-based services and projects to support recovery from mental health problems and promote positive mental health across our diverse communities.

We value the individual skills, talents and lived experience that everyone brings to CPSL Mind – and co-production plays a key part in everything we do.

Everything we do is underpinned by our core values of respect, empowerment, inclusivity, integrity, courage and compassion. Our guiding principle is less about us and more about you and about wellbeing across our communities at its very heart. We campaign with you against the stigma & discrimination faced by so many people experiencing mental health challenges.

Our mission

We’ve been supporting local people with their mental health for more than a century. Our longevity comes from the fact that we have learnt from experience, moved with the times, developed our expertise and dared to innovate. Our vision is a society in which everyone has positive mental health and feels part of a connected community.

Funders and partners

As a values–led organisation we achieve many projects through collaboration, working across the Cambridgeshire, Peterborough and South Lincolnshire and across all sectors.

We do receive some contract funding and support from Grant Making Trusts, but some projects need additional support to maintain the programme or innovate new services. We are highly collaborative in partnership working.
