Donations

We rely on and always appreciate help from members of the public.

Your support changes lives – one donation at a time.

Whether you choose to give monthly or make a one-off donation, your support means the world to us – and to the people we help every day.

At Mary Frances Trust, we provide vital mental health support across Surrey.  Your generosity helps us continue, grow and adapt our services so no-one has to face mental health challenges alone.

Every donation makes a difference

You might be surprised by how much impact your donation can have – whatever the amount.

Real people, real stories, real change

Here’s what some of our clients have said about the difference your donations help us make:

“Mary Frances Trust has helped and encouraged me to attend community activities and talk to others in similar situations – something I never would’ve done before because of my shyness and low self-esteem”

“MFT has been a major turning point in my life – not just from the support, but from what I’ve learned too”

“Without MFT, I don’t know where I’d be”.

Giving feels good – for you too!

When you donate to a cause you believe in, you’re not only helping others but your are making a positive impact on your own wellbeing.

Many people tell us that giving regularly brings a deep sense of connection and purpose.

Megan joined MFT in January 2025 and looks after the development of our strategic priority for MFT to live and breathe co-production. She also facilitates our Advisory Group, and champions those with lived experience of mental health challenges to improve the way mental health support is developed, reviewed, and delivered.

Megan first learnt about co-production as a Lived Experience Advisor with the Independent Mental Health Network based at Surrey Coalition of Disabled People, contributing her own lived experience to mental health projects in Surrey and North East Hampshire after graduating university.

She has since worked on a range of development projects for Surrey’s mental health and wellbeing support, immersing community engagement and lived experience into research and decision-making. Additionally, she is an alumna for The King’s Fund after completing their Advanced Organisational Development Practitioner programme.
