Virgin Money charity partners
We've teamed up with Mind and SAMH to help people get support with their money and mental health
Good thinking
Say hello to Mind and SAMH (Scottish Action for Mental Health), our latest charity partners
Working across England, Wales and Scotland, these charities are making mental health a top priority.
They won't stop until everyone with a mental health problem gets the right support and respect. And we want to do our bit to help.

Money is on everyone's minds more than ever right now. But worrying about finances isn't good for anyone's mental health.
That's why we're so excited that our colleagues voted for Virgin Money to team up with Mind and SAMH. From fundraising to more practical things like volunteering, we'll do whatever we can to help.
