Join Us in Supporting Mind This February!
Miniatures for Mind is back for 2025, and this year, we’re going bigger and better than ever! Throughout February, HobbytimeAtHealys will be raising funds for the incredible mental health charity Mind through a month-long Twitch streaming event. Mental health is something that affects us all, and through creativity, painting, and community, we’re coming together to make a difference.
What We Are Doing:
This February, HobbytimeAtHealys is hosting a special fundraising campaign for Mind. Throughout the month, every £1 donated will add an extra minute to our mega marathon stream at the end of February!
But that’s not all – for every £5 donated, you’ll get an entry into our raffle with some truly fantastic prizes generously donated by amazing individuals and companies.
So whether you’re tuning in to watch miniatures come to life, donating to support a great cause, or simply spreading the word, we’d love for you to be a part of it!
Why We Are Doing It:
Why Mind? Simply because mental health matters! Did you know that:
- 1 in 4 of us will experience a mental health problem every year.
- 1 in 15 people attempt suicide over the course of their lifetime.
- Mind’s online resource pages were visited over 25 million times last year, providing crucial support and information to those in need.
Through their support networks, volunteers, and information services, Mind is making a real difference – and we want to help them continue their incredible work.
As the ethos for the Twitch channel community is "Stay Safe, Stay Positive & Be an Ambassador for your hobby!", a charity that helps support mental health feels like a perfect fit. Painting miniatures and being passionate about your hobby are all great, healthy ways to express yourself and channel energy. For many, painting is a calming activity that helps reduce anxiety and stress. Likewise, we fully believe in being open about our mental health, fostering discussions, and providing a safe space for those who wish to express themselves.
