As from 1st October 2015 Newton Aycliffe Mind will be known as “The Hub of Wishes”.
The decision to disaffiliate from National Mind was taken unanimously through our board of trustees and service users. We had a meeting with National Mind and came to an amicable agreement to disaffiliate and run our organisation independently.
We still maintain an excellent reputation with Mind and they have helped us and supported us greatly throughout the disaffiliation process. We will still work together with other local associations.
We believe that running independently will give us greater scope to improve our services and reach out further into the community.
I would like to thank everyone who has supported Newton Aycliffe Mind past and present and would hope for continued support in our new venture.
Our name will change but services will remain the same.
We have big plans to improve opening hours and extend our range of services.
We relaunch on Thursday October 1st and invite interested persons to come along to the centre for refreshments and find out about our new venture.
