About us
The Mix is the UK's leading digital charity for under 25s, reaching over 6 million young people each year. Whatever issue a young person is facing, The Mix is always there for them - via our website, over the phone or via social media. Our support is free, confidential and anonymous and can be accessed wherever young people are. We connect young people to experts and their peers to talk about everything from money to mental health, homelessness to jobs, break-ups to drugs and more. No topic is out of bounds, and we are completely non-judgemental. The Mix’s mission is to empower every young person to make an informed choice about their wellbeing; whether that’s through our peer-led and moderated community, multi-channel helpline, counselling service, crisis support messenger or our range of support content. We aim to put young people at the centre of everything we do; we use our service data and collaborate with under 25s to inform every aspect of our services and our wider work. We use youth voice work to share a platform with young people and put their views and experiences at the centre of the conversation.

We are pleased to announce that The Mix will be merging with Mental Health Innovations, the charity that oversees Shout UK, the 24/7 mental health text service. It has always been our ambition to expand the reach of mental health support we can give to young people across the UK via our digital products and services. This exciting new partnership gives us the opportunity to build on the millions of young people we support each year, no matter what they’re going through💜 Our focus will be on early intervention as we continue to grow our online support community, discussion boards and online resources, as well as offering more volunteering opportunities that enable young people to directly contribute to supporting each other. Our existing single-session counselling interventions and self-paced learning modules will be joined by the growth of an upcoming chatbot service and peer-led 1-2-1 interventions. "The union of The Mix and Mental Health Innovations is an incredible opportunity to bring together the UK’s two leading digital charities to drive earlier intervention for young people’s mental health. We believe that this new partnership will create transformational change now and in the future." - Chris Martin, CEO of The Mix With two of the leading organisations for young people now joining forces, the future has never looked brighter for the lives and wellbeing of each and every young person in the UK. Equipped with a wider variety of expertise and knowledge and possessing a greater reach, we can continue to keep young people at the heart of everything we do and create an even more inclusive, compassionate and impactful service for anyone under the age of 25.
