World Mental Health Day – October 10th 2025
Every year on October 10th, people from countries, cities, and local communities come together in celebration of World Mental Health Day
It’s a day when we talk about their mental health, reflect, and look out for each other.
At Mind in the Vale of Glamorgan we passionately believe everybody’s mental health matters – across the globe – and on our doorstep too.
Today, we share Nigel’s story to show how collectively we make a difference at the heart of our community.
Nigel was referred from his GP to Barry’s Mental Health Team and Mind in the Vale of Glamorgan rapidly when he faced his mental health crisis.
The fast and efficient service I had from my GP to Mind in the Vale of Glamorgan was so supportive, says Nigel. “It helped me realise I was not alone, and there were clever people out there who understood exactly what I was going through, and cared. Having that service was a massive reassurance to me when I desperately needed help.
Thank you, Nigel, for bravely sharing your story. You have made a difference.
Please watch Nigel’s full story.
