Mind in West Essex supports people affected by mental ill health, predominantly across West Essex to make positive changes in their lives and to improve their emotional resilience. We also aim to normalise the conversation around mental health and in doing so reduce the stigma that can be a barrier to people accessing the support that could help them to improve their quality of life. We provide a range of services in order to help us deliver on these aims, these include: counselling as part of the NHS psychological therapies service; a private counselling service; Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training; emotional resilience training; peer support; befriending to reduce isolation; bereavement work and community support. In addition to the above client facing services we also run a Mental Health Referral Triage service on behalf of West Essex CCG. This service processes all GP mental health referrals across West Essex and passes them on to the relevant provider. We have an active presence on social media platforms as part of our efforts to normalise mental health and engage with the public in a way that is accessible to a wide range of people. We are an independent, local, registered charity (Charity number 1091154) with a board of trustees drawn from the communities that we serve. We also affiliate to the national charity Mind; this means that we are part of a network of 140 other local Mind charities. The services we provide are delivered by a team of 34 staff and 60 volunteers. We’re Mind in West Essex, your expert mental health partner. Our network across England and Wales provide services that are practical and rooted in the reality of people’s lives.

Her experience as an athlete – she has represented England for Tag Rugby, Table Tennis and on the running track – has fueled her interest in human movement and health. Having spent over thirteen years perfecting her craft as a personal trainer and lifestyle coach, Grace is able to utilise a range of techniques to help her clients achieve their goals including nutrition, mobility, lifestyle and strength & conditioning training. “I enjoy helping people reach their full potential as an athlete and health & fitness goals, especially when they don’t think they can. I love encouraging women to lift weights and get strong as they feel empowered. Seeing clients reach their performance goals, fat loss, health, strength and energy goals brings so much satisfaction, and in seeing how much you can influence someone to improve their quality of life.” Born and raised in Essex, just outside London, Grace has travelled the world in pursuit of knowledge in her field. Her career in the fitness industry began in Australia, with the National Australian Institute of Personal Trainers where she gained experience working alongside leading industry figures. Grace has worked with Strength and Conditioning Coaches at the Australian Women’s Rugby 7s Team, Surfing Australia High Performance Centre and a number of professional rugby league teams such as the Cronulla Sharks & Sydney Roosters. Back in London, Grace has focused her knowledge and efforts towards personal training and coaching, bringing the process previously only available to elite athletes to you. Our lives are busy, non-stop and highly stressful. Grace wants to help you achieve your goals in the gym to give you the energy to achieve more in life.
