Community • Connection • Growth
Well-being that starts with somewhere to be, and someone to be there with.
Wild Mind Well-Being is a Buckinghamshire Community Interest Company bringing people, animals, nature and purpose together. We offer mentoring and wellbeing support alongside community projects, volunteering, recovery support and opportunities to belong, contribute and grow.
Who we are
A Community Interest Company built around people, purpose and place
A CIC is a social enterprise created to benefit the community. We reinvest our surpluses into the work, supporting people, caring for animals and creating places where people can connect, contribute and grow. In practice that means mentoring hours, feed and vet bills, and keeping the workshop warm. We are small, local and accountable to the people who use us.
Community
Places to belong before you're asked to change. Sheds, sheds' kettles, gates that open, people who remember your name.
Connection
One-to-one relationships that hold. With a mentor, with an animal, with the person working the row next to you.
Growth
Small, honest steps. Skills, confidence and routine built through real work with real consequences.
Support
Ways we work with people one to one
You don't need a diagnosis, a referral or a crisis to get in touch. Most people start with a conversation.

Volunteering
Whatever time you have. Fencing, feeding, admin, driving, baking, it all counts.

Support doesn't always have to start in a clinic.
Social prescribing helps connect people with support, activities and opportunities in their community that can improve wellbeing, connection, confidence and purpose.

Fund the work
Businesses, funders and partners help us make support and community projects more accessible
Earned income from mentoring and corporate impact days helps sustain our work. Grants, funding and partnerships allow us to go further, developing community projects, subsidising support and creating opportunities for people who might otherwise be unable to access them. If your organisation wants social value that you can stand in the middle of, muddy boots, real outcomes, honest reporting, we should talk.
We reinvest our surpluses into the work, that's the CIC promise.
Not sure where you fit?
That's normal. Tell us roughly what's going on and we'll point you somewhere useful, even if that somewhere isn't us.
