Support our vital mental health services
We’re a small mental health charity that’s been offering free, barrier-free support for 22 years—no diagnosis, referral, or waiting list needed. Just real, accessible peer support from people who understand.
Every week we run:
10 in-person support groups across Bristol
7 online groups
Nature wellbeing groups & befriending sessions

Last year, we supported over 1,100 people in 852 peer support groups.
Right now, donations help us run free support groups in communities that need them most. But with costs rising and donations falling, we need your help.
Whether you give, share, or just spread the word—you’ll be helping someone feel less alone.
“Changes has given me a regular support group in my local area, that lets me check in, share my thoughts and get feedback and support others. It’s a great help.”



Other ways to donate
You can donate to honour a loved one’s memory, in your will or organise a fundraising event on our behalf. Our team are on hand to help along the way and answer any questions. Any support you can give will directly help to reduce social isolation, increase self-esteem, maintain mental health and help people making steps to recovery. We are a member of the Fundraising Standards Board, and are always very grateful for any support we receive.
