The Covid-19 crisis has meant that NSUN is needed more than ever. We are asking for your help so that we can continue to: 

  • Communicate with our members so that they can receive timely, trustworthy and relevant mental health updates and analysis
  • Relay our members’ concerns to high level policy makers, influence policy and scrutinise emergency legislative changes  
  • Help our members stay connected during this period of social distancing and isolation

You can help us continue this urgent work by making a one-off donation here.


Many of us will be affected by distress and disadvantage at some point in our lives. All of our work is led by people who have personal experience of mental distress. NSUN's user-led nature is what sets it apart from other organisations in the field, and gives it unique insight and authenticity.

Our network connects people, communicates with people and works to influence things for the better.

Each year we send out over 100 ebulletins, sharing news, views and opportunities to our 5000 members. We ensure that the direct voice of people is heard at policy level as well as at a local level.

NSUN is a small charity with low overheads, but high activity. We directly employ people who have had experience of distress, discrimination and severe disadvantage.

We need your help to ensure that people are more likely to be isolated, ignored and not listened to are able to have a voice and make a difference. 

By donating you can help us reach as many people as possible through our national network.

Making a regular donation will help us to continually campaign for better treatment and alternative ways of providing support when needed.

You can make a one-off donation to NSUN here.
