SANE offers emotional support and information to anyone affected by mental health problems, including their families and carers through our helpline and email services and our online Support Forum where people share their feelings and experiences.

SANE is a leading UK mental health charity. We work to improve quality of life for anyone affected by mental illness. 

SANE's vision has remained consistent throughout its twenty five year history: to raise public awareness, excite research, and bring more effective professional treatment and compassionate care to everyone affected by mental illness.

SANE has three main objectives linked to our aims and outcomes:

1. to raise awareness and combat stigma about mental illness, educating and campaigning to improve mental health services
2. to provide care and emotional support for people with mental health problems, their families and carers as well as information for other organisations and the public
3. to initiate research into the causes and treatments of serious mental illness such as schizophrenia and depression and the psychological and social impact of mental illness.
