Our values:

• Striving to make mental health services more human

• Working alongside people to help them realise their potential

• Raising awareness, promoting understanding and challenging stigma

• The importance of community and the benefits of mutual support

How we work:

• Open: We reach out to anyone who needs us

• Together: We’re stronger in partnership

• Independent: We speak out fearlessly

• Unstoppable: We never give up

Safeguarding at Oxfordshire Mind

Oxfordshire Mind is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and vulnerable adults and expects all employees and volunteers to share this commitment. 

Service-user involvement at Oxfordshire Mind

At Oxfordshire Mind we are committed to involving people with lived experience of mental health problems in every aspect of our work; for us, this starts with the recruitment process. On each interview panel, there will be two Oxfordshire Mind employees and one person with a lived experience of mental health problems.
