The SANE charity helps and improves the quality of life for people affected by mental illness.
SANE has three objectives:
- to raise awareness and combat stigma about mental illness, educating and campaigning to improve mental health services
- to provide care and support for people with mental health problems, their families and carers as well as information for other organisations and the public. (They have an advice line called SANEline)
- To initiate research into the causes and treatments of serious mental illness such as schizophrenia and depression and the psychological and social impact of mental illness.
