We are so grateful to the Edge Fund for awarding us with another grant of £1000. We will be meeting in the new year to discuss our plans for spending.
The Edge Fund focuses its grantgiving on grassroots groups and campaigns that would ordinarily find it difficult to receive money from traditional and mainstream funders. Our work at Mad Insight casts a critical lens upon the mental health system as we know it and the biomedical, pro-pharmaceutical, coercive models which dominate the mental healthcare landscape. We wouldn’t be easily considered for mainstream funding that rests upon these types of approaches.
We are proud to be among the courageous and radical groups who have been awarded funding in Round 16 and we aim to extend our reach and our impact with this money.
