Mental Health Research UK

Registered Charity Number: 1125538


About the charity

Mental Health Research UK is the first UK charity dedicated to raising funds for research into mental illnesses, their causes, and cures.

What our donation will help fund

Mental Health Research UK awards PhD Scholarships to outstanding young researchers giving them their first steps in a mental health research career. By doing this we aim not only to fund vital research needed to improve outcomes in mental health conditions, but also to help build the next generation of mental health researchers. The Scholarships are held at the best universities in the UK. So far, we have been able to award 29 scholarships each costing £100,000.

It is essential that our PhD Scholars have the opportunity to present their research findings at scientific conferences so that they can share their results widely and receive feedback from the research community. The Movement for Good Award will pay the costs of our PhD Scholars to attend scientific conferences to present their research results and to meet and interact with other scientists working in their field of research. This will support our twin missions of funding important research that will make a difference to those with mental health conditions and training the next generation of researchers.
