Founded in 1946 in the United Kingdom as the National Association for Mental Health, Mind takes its actual name in 1972. With more than 180 local offices across England and Wales, Mind strives for people suffering from mental illness by advising them in their daily lives, by lobbying the authorities and by communicating with the public to improve the understanding of these unknown diseases.
In 2018, the charitable and artistic initiative Secret 7” has launched a new form of fundraising to benefit Mind, an NGO working for the well-being of mentality ill persons. Named “Planar 1/1”, the project brings together ten international artists, including French illustrator and graphic designer Jean Jullien, around the personalization of turntables, intended for a charity auction.
