Our scholars and academic community are working to reduce health inequalities around the world.
From cutting-edge bio-medical research to advancing our understanding of mental health, we are wholly dedicated to the betterment of health and wellbeing on a global scale.
Across the world people are balancing their lives with increasing pressures on their mental health. Although we are increasingly aware that we need to care for our mental health, knowing how to do this can be complex.
Why does this matter?
Mental health is crucial for vibrant, thriving communities. It supports happy, productive lives and fosters inclusive, compassionate societies. Your support enables us to promote good mental health and help individuals achieve their full potential.
At York we understand this. We have a long history of world leading mental health research which has delivered a greater understanding of and support for mental health challenges. This research enables people to live better lives every day.
As a University for public good, our researchers draw on academic excellence coupled with bold, creative thinking to change lives for the better.
