About Action in Mind (AiM)
Action in Mind is the leading local mental health charity predominantly working across the Stirling Council area, supporting better mental health for everyone. We provide person-centred, outcome focused services for people aged 18 and upwards who experience low to moderate mental health conditions as well as people living with long-term chronic mental illnesses. We work closely with Stirling Council, NHS Forth Valley and Clackmannanshire and Stirling Health & Social Care Partnership.

Service Eligibility
Adults over the age of 18 who are struggling with their mental health and do not live in supported accommodation can access our befriending service. As the service operates in the local community, individuals must be able to leave their home independently.
They can be referred by any person working with them in a professional capacity.
Information for Volunteers
Volunteering underpins many of our services, including the Adult Befriending service and the The Hub (peer support group). We are incredibly proud of the work our volunteers do in supporting the clients who access our services. Their enthusiastic support and commitment encourages real, tangible lifestyle changes in those who experience poor mental health. All volunteers are vetted, trained and supported during their volunteering experience with us.
