Seasalt Giving: Mind, our charity partner

Looking after each other and ourselves.


We share Mind’s belief that no-one should have to face a mental health problem alone. Mind provide advice and support to empower anyone experiencing a mental health problem. They campaign to improve services, raise awareness and promote understanding.

To help support Mind’s vital work, we’ve committed to raising £100,000 per year for the charity over three years. These funds will help Mind to make sure anyone with a mental health problem has somewhere to turn for advice and support.

During the first year of our partnership, we created ‘Moments with Mind’ to share information to support Seasalt customers, as well as our staff, with their mental health during the coronavirus pandemic and beyond.

Following on from this, we ran our creative competition ‘With Design in Mind’ to celebrate the positive effects that arts and crafts can have on mental wellbeing. We asked our customers to create a design that embodied a happy moment, and the winning design was featured on a limited-edition canvas tote bag.

We were overwhelmed by the amount – and quality – of entries. So much so, that earlier this year we launched a range of greeting cards using the winning design and 5 runners up. Our new Mind Charity Greeting Cards went on sale this year in the spring, with all profits from each pack of cards going to Mind. This means that every purchase will help Mind with the cost of running important services, such as their Infoline and online community, Side by Side.

We can’t wait to share more about how we’re working with Mind, and how you can get involved. In the meantime, keep an eye on the blog where we’ll keep sharing tutorials, crafty projects, recipes, reads and recommendations for ways to look after your wellbeing every day.
