We are Many Minds, a Bristol based mental health charity.

Our vision is for people who have experience of mental ill-health to be empowered to realise their full potential through creativity and performance.  

Many Minds mission is to increase access to and participation in the arts for people who identify with experiences of mental ill-health and to promote equality, connection, understanding and awareness in the wider public through performance. 

We run weekly workshops in theatre making to devise and create high quality contemporary performance. We work with individuals to engage with creativity, improve confidence, self-esteem and build social skills and networks.

Productions

We have performed our work at Bristol Old Vic, The Wardrobe Theatre, Theatre on the Downs, The Watershed, City Hall, We the Curious in Bristol and at Cardboard Citizens HQ in London. Our work has been shown at Arnolfini, Mayfest festival, Harbourside Festival and Bristol Refugee Festival. Find out more about our upcoming shows.

Thomas: “Being involved has helped my confidence come back and reminded me that I love performing and that I am good at it. My connection with Many Minds has brought me lifelong friends and also given me the confidence to get involved with other creative projects”
