Mental Health Matters Wales is proud to be a member of the Wales Alliance for Mental Health (WAMH).

WAMH brings together Wales’ leading national charities working in mental health, suicide prevention, and self-harm support.

Together, we amplify the voices of everyone who needs mental health support.

We believe improving mental health across Wales requires a joined-up approach—focusing on early intervention, prevention, and trauma-informed care.

At the heart of our work in the Wales Alliance for Mental Health (WAMH) is a shared, unwavering belief: that everyone in Wales deserves compassionate, timely, and effective support for their mental health.

As a coalition of leading national charities, we witness every day the courage of individuals and the strain on a system that needs urgent, transformative change.

While we acknowledge progress made, the reality is mental health needs are rising, and too many people are being left behind.

Our vision is for a Wales where mental health is treated as integral to our overall health and wellbeing. We envision a person-centred, rights-based system that prevents problems where it can, intervenes early and compassionately, and provides truly holistic support for recovery. A system free from stigma, where everyone can access the help they need, when they need it.

The Wales Alliance for Mental Health consists of:

Adferiad, Beat eating disorders, Mental Health Matters Wales, Mental Health Foundation, Mind Cymru, Papyrus: Prevention of Young Suicide, and Samaritans Cymru
