Time to Change grants fund is now open

Time to Change is looking for projects that challenge the stigma surrounding mental health problems by bringing people who don't have experience of mental health problems together with those who do.Projects must engage local communities in meaningful conversations about mental health, and they should involve people with first-hand experience of mental health problems within their planning and development. 25% of the fund will be awarded to projects working with Black and Minority Ethnic communities, and 20% will be awarded to projects that engage with children and young people.

The deadline for applications is 2pm on 30 March. Visit the Time to Change website at www.time-to-change.org.uk/grants to find out more.

Time to Change is England 's biggest ever programme to end mental health discrimination, run by mental health charities Mind and Rethink Mental Illness, and funded by the Department of Health and Comic Relief.
