British charity Help Musicians has launched a new website called Music Minds Matter Explore. It’s a spin-off from its Music Minds Matter phone line, which musicians and industry folk can call if they are having mental health challenges.
With 2022 having seen a 34% increase in calls, Help Musicians is launching the website to offer more support with information, videos, and pointers to other organisations that might be able to help.
“We hope that those using the site will find information to understand their needs better, signposting to support available locally and nationally, plus knowledgeable and supportive voices,” said head of Music Minds Matter Joe Hastings.
“The music landscape is ever-changing and we will continue to develop our mental health support for all those who work in music.”
