There is a growing demand for mental wellbeing services, with 1 in 3 adults being diagnosed with a mental health condition in Aberdeen alone every year.

As Aberdeen’s largest and trusted provider of mental health services, we are more than aware of the pressures this brings. As a result, that is why we were delighted to publicly announce our exciting ‘Changing Lives’ campaign to raise £3.2 million pounds to build an ambitious purpose-built mental wellbeing facility in the heart of Aberdeen to support adults on their journey to recovery.

This new 20 bedroom facility with an associated community-based outreach service will provide vital support to people living with a range of mental health conditions, empowering them to take control of their lives through our highly regarded recovery model and specialised mental wellbeing support staff.

The campaign was officially launched by the Lord Provost and is being backed by ex- Scotland Manager Alex McLeish, Aberdeen Standard Investments, BP, Apache and many others, however we need your help.

With your help, we can make this desperately needed facility happen and change lives for the better by providing first-class services and facilities for those who need help and support.
