for better mental health
As part of a 12 month fundraiser, Adam and Ash have completed a charity football match in aid of North Kent Mind. They have surpassed their original fundraising target still with the rest of 2021 to go and more exciting events planned. Great team effort! Thank you from all at North Kent Mind!
We offer short-hold tenancy agreements, which means that tenants living within them are expected to become independent enough to move on to general housing within two years. Everyone is encouraged to move to settings that are more independent when they are able to do.

On Saturday 2nd March, Ash Stone and Adam Palmer walked with their football team, Medway United Unver 12s East, as part of a 12 month fundraiser for North Kent Mind.
They set off from Strood and walked 7.5 miles to the Howard School in Rainham, completing this in 2 hours and 45 minutes.
As a result of the walk, they raised around £1000, bringing their total so far to £3660.
Great effort from all involved and all monies raised will be used for local services to make sure no one has to face a mental health issue alone!
Alone once again
Deep in the night
Looking for colours
Oh so bright
Looking for freedom
To ease pain in my heart
Searching and searching
But where do we start
Look deep into the abyss
The colours so strong
Hold on little one
It’s not where we belong
You need to have colours
Oh so bright
Not the dark dark one’s
That come in the night
We don’t have to be here
It’s not a good place
We’ll take it slowly
It isn’t a race
It will be daylight soon
We need to take care
We need to stay together
You, me and LoLo Bear
