Welcome to Worcestershire Mental Health Link Network
We are primarly a Voluntary and Comunity Sector (VCS) network which includes a wide mix of groups, including those that work solely within mental health and also wider VCS groups with an interest in emotional well being and mental health. The network is informal, inclusive and currently has well over 50 member organisations or projects. Membership is also open to statutory sector agencies.
