Get involved

Everyone has a role to play.

No single organisation can change a culture alone. Minds at Peace works as a coalition, connecting the people and organisations already doing this work and giving it greater reach.

Your story could change someone’s decision to ask for help.

For too long, mental health has been discussed mostly in clinical language. Expertise matters, but so does experience. Someone who has lived through depression, anxiety, grief, addiction or burnout can say what statistics cannot: you are not alone.

When we share stories, we protect the dignity, privacy and wellbeing of the people telling them.

For public figures and athletes.

Public figures have extraordinary reach. Used responsibly, it can shift attitudes for millions. We work with selected artists, athletes, creators and leaders to share experiences, support campaigns, raise funds and point people towards professional help.

Authenticity is the only condition.

For artists and creators.

Musicians, poets, filmmakers, artists, production houses and content creators can help change how millions think about mental health. Collaborate with CANVAS on new work, or join our creator network for training, clinical guidance and production support.

For professionals.

Psychologists, psychiatrists, therapists, sports psychologists, researchers and educators keep our work credible and safe. We welcome your guidance on our content, our programmes and our resource directory.

For organisations.

Companies, schools, universities, clubs, governing bodies, media organisations, faith and community organisations, foundations and public institutions: mental health is everyone’s business. We look for partnerships that create measurable, scalable impact.

For media.

Minds at Peace is available for commentary, interviews and research partnerships on mental health, stigma, culture, sport and institutional responsibility.
