World Mental Health Day – 10th October 2025
World Mental Health Day
Today, October 10th, marks #WorldMentalHealthDay, a time to reflect on mental health issues and improvement work all around the world, a time to break down barriers and have important conversations. But for us at Brandon Centre, mental health isn’t just a topic for today – it’s a commitment that we make every day. We believe that every young person deserves access to high-quality, accessible mental health support, and for over fifty years we’ve been working in the vibrant heart of #Camden and #Islington to support our community and meet the evolving needs of young people and their families.
The theme this year is ‘Access to Services – Mental Health in Catastrophes or Emergencies’ highlighting the importance of having safe mental health support during crises, whether they be global conflicts, pandemics or natural disasters, or more personal emergencies.
At Brandon Centre, we strive to be here for young people, developing flexible and accessible specialist services for young people to access the highest quality mental health and wellbeing support in a safe and welcoming environment, through services including:
- Counselling and psychotherapy
- Systemic integrative treatment
- Social prescribing
- Parenting programmes
- Arsenal in the Community
- School staff support
…and much more!
We believe that mental health support should be proactive, not reactive. It should be embedded in the communities where young people spend their time. It should be inclusive, culturally sensitive, and free from judgment. And most importantly, it should be shaped by young people themselves – because they are the experts in their own experiences.
We’re proud to be supporting the lives of the young people we serve, today and every other day of the year. So go on – celebrate World Mental Health Day alongside us and do something good too.
