Find mental health support — and help fund it

This directory exists because the gap between mental health support and the people who need it is too wide, and too often invisible.

We list charities and not-for-profits that are doing some of the most important work in mental health. They are the small and medium-sized organisations with tight teams, limited marketing budgets, and no dedicated fundraising departments. The ones that show up anyway.

Every organisation listed here has been chosen because they offer real, direct support to people who need it: helplines, peer groups, counselling, community. Actual help.

And here's the thing… you can run, walk or hike your marathon in aid of any of them.

Every October, Marathon for Mental Health brings together hundreds of people across the world to cover 26.2 miles in any way that works for them. At their own pace, in their own time, for a cause that matters to them. When you book your place, you can choose to fundraise for any charity or not-for-profit listed in this directory, putting real money into the hands of the organisations that need it most.

No race. No finish line. Just distance, community, and a cause worth moving for.
