MIND IN HARROGATE DISTRICT 

Our vision is that all people in Harrogate District have the best mental health they can and that no one should have to face mental health issues alone. We provide a range of community based mental health support from The Acorn Centre in Harrogate and also at outreach locations across the wider Harrogate District.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
