Trustees

MindOut is a project run by and for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Queer people.  Our staff, volunteers and board of trustees, are all LGBTQ. 100% of our team have lived experience of mental health needs, or caring responsibilities for a person with lived experience.

Our board of Trustees meets regularly to oversee the running of the charity. Our trustees have a range of experience and expertise to enable effective management of the organisation. Our trustee board includes current and ex service users of MindOut services, and those who use or have used statutory mental health services and other provision.
