North Kent Mind

North Kent Mind

North Kent Mind (formerly Dartford, Gravesham, and Swanley Mind), is an independent mental health charity operating in North Kent. We provide a wide range of services for people who experience mental health problems, whether these are described as anxiety, depression, bipolar, schizophrenia, OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), Personality Disorder, or otherwise. We work with people individually or in small or large groups.

Our services include supported housing, low cost counselling, agoraphobic support, activity sessions, springboard, social groups, person centred planning, self-management courses, peer-led activities and open sessions. We work closely with other local organisations, where this is the best way of achieving our aims, and are supported in our work by paid staff, trained volunteers, and student social workers and trainee mental health nurses on placement.
