We want to be able to integrate mental health and wellbeing teaching into medical education in the future and work with other charities and governing bodies to be able create lasting, impactful change, as medical student mental health and wellbeing matters and is a priority too.

Our Values.
Promote
Promoting a positive culture and environment that prioritises mental health and wellbeing in medical students.
Prevent
Share tools, workshops and campaigns to equip our community with the right resources they can rely on to help when, and if they experience difficulties with their mental health.
Tackle
Tackle the shame and stigma associated with mental ill-health and struggles with wellbeing by sharing personal stories online, increasing awareness of mental health issues and effects on students and doctors
The Stories.
As part of the MindHealth campaign ongoing on our Instagram @mindhealthuk, medical students and practicing healthcare professionals have shared their personal stories related to wellbeing. We hope those speaking out are able to help others who are pursuing medicine so that they are able to find methods of incorporating wellbeing into their lifestyle. Hopefully, the solidarity of the community will inspire others to reach out and seek help when they need it, knowing they are not alone.
