Re:minds, available via this link, started up over 6 years ago when a small support group was set up by one parent, supporting families of children with autism, ADHD or with poor mental health. This very quickly grew and today they have over 1500 members!

After securing funding from The National Lottery Community Fund, they felt they needed to change to a more formal structure and this is where Action Hampshire came in.

“The support we got was invaluable, we signed up for membership and had a very important and practical conversation with the CEO about some of the intricacies of being a community interest company with advice on further actions and support. Moving on from that we wanted some HR support and help with identifying and measuring impact, again Action Hampshire stepped in and ran a bespoke training course for us and put us in touch with Peas in a Pod for a free HR consultation.

We really value the newsletters Action Hampshire send out as they keep us in touch with the community, tell us about valuable training and funding streams and many more opportunities.

Happy 70th birthday Action Hampshire, here’s to another 70 years.”
