To choose our charity of the year, we had a vote in our hap HQ. Manchester Mind was the most popular charity to support by far! The charities’ values of Openness, Belonging, Strength, and Collaboration resonated with everyone at hap as they are similar to our own values. We Care, We Prepare, and We are Open. This year we are officially partnering with the charity, which means we will be fundraising regularly, sharing their key messages and content from their social media accounts and volunteering. Although Manchester Mind is based locally to our HQ, we think working with the charity will benefit our staff across the UK and Ireland as we will be sharing their content and sharing tips and tricks to help with mental health issues.
About Manchester Mind:
Manchester Mind has been helping young people and adults in Manchester for over 30 years. They believe that everyone deserves to be supported in their mental health. Manchester Mind promotes the health and well-being of people affected by mental distress and takes a positive approach to mental health, challenging stereotypes and discrimination.
Joanna Huddart at Manchester Mind commented, “We’re proud to be named as hap Solutions Group’s new charity partner and grateful for the chance to work together over the next twelve months. Not only will the team raise vital donations in aid of our local mental health services, but there will be a focus on workplace wellbeing, volunteering and in kind donations to our festive gift appeal. As an independent local charity, we value the hap Group’s inspired dedication, ensuring we can continue to be there for 7,000 young people and adults in need. Thank you for your positive community spirit, which really will make a lasting difference at Manchester Mind.”
