BeMindFit (BMF) is a registered Trust organisation that seeks to promote mental wellness through raising awareness and training people on how to develop mental skills and self-help tools for managing life challenges that affect their mental health. Given the current global disruptions (the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the economic recessions, wars, political unrests, social woes, and climate change) mental health, for the majority of people around the globe, has been compromised. The World Health Organisation (WHO) states that as at 2019, 1 in every 8 people or 970 million people in the world were living with a mental disorder. These figures could be higher now since COVID-19 is reported to have increased mental health cases by 26% and 28% for anxiety and major depressive disorders respectively, in just one year. BMF therefore seeks to augment the WHO and Government efforts in bringing ignorance and stigma levels down through awareness and training hence promoting good mental health for all as stated in the United Nation’s SDG number 3.4.
