Through our data and research, clinical expertise, innovation and partnerships, we're working on focus areas where our expertise will enable us to have a positive outcome on the mental health of the UK population.
Our work to harness data insights and digital innovation to provide new technologies and mental health support to people across the UK is underpinned by our team of in house clinical experts.
We use anonymised, aggregated data to generate unique insights into the mental health of the UK population. We use these insights to enhance our services, to inform the development of new resources and products, and to report on trends of interest for the broader mental health sector.
We view partnerships as central to our mission to improve access to transformative digital mental health resources and insight across the UK.
