What it does
Rethink Mental Illness provides information about mental illness, everyday living and support options. Its advice hub includes work, education, carers' issues, digital resources and UK rights and benefits information.
The daily-life sections are a useful distinction here. You can look beyond a condition overview to topics such as work, education and supporting a relative. The carers' hub gives a separate route for someone seeking information on another person's behalf.
Its digital mental health hub explains categories of online tools, including apps and peer support. Rights, benefits, driving and insurance material is tied to the UK context and should be read with that jurisdiction in mind. The advice service is separate from the written pages. Start with the relevant information section to identify the issue and the kind of support resource you need.
