Objectives

Mary Frances Trust (MFT) is a mental health and emotional wellbeing charity, supporting Surrey residents since 1994 in Banstead, Elmbridge, Epsom & Ewell and Mole Valley.

We offer a variety of face-to-face and online services, available to adults (aged 16+) living in Surrey who would like to restore and/or maintain their mental and emotional wellbeing (no diagnosis needed). We run wellbeing activities, offer wellbeing advice and information, have a crisis service called Safe Haven and much more. To see all of our services, please visit the How We Help section of our website.

Our services are free of charge, with no waiting list and no time limit (you can use us for as long as you need and register again at any point).

Activities

Our Vision:

We believe anyone experiencing any kind of mental or emotional health issues should feel unafraid to ask for help, receive appropriate support for as long as they need, and be inspired to develop the skills that will help them to restore and maintain their own wellbeing, and lead a fulfilling life.

Our mission is to:

  • Work alongside people experiencing any kind of emotional or mental health issues for as long as they need, and inspire them to develop the skills that will help them to restore and maintain their emotional wellbeing.
  • Involve people with lived experience of mental health issues at every level of the organisation so together we can design, deliver, monitor and review our services and ensure they respond to their changing needs.
  • Consistently challenge stigma attached to mental illness and raise awareness of the importance of looking after your mental wellbeing.
  • Lead and co-ordinate the development and delivery of first-class, voluntary mental health services in Surrey.
  • Maintain sufficient funding streams to be able to provide person-centred services to people experiencing any kind of emotional or mental health issues.
