Annual Report

“It gives me great pleasure to present MHACA’s 2021 Annual report. The report highlights the many achievements of the organisation throughout 2020/21. We continue our work to lead and support a range of mental health initiatives in the region.

Our primary goal is supporting local communities with comprehensive and quality services and facilities that enhance peoples’ quality of life and enable them to manage and potentially resolve any mental health issues that may impact their lives.”
