Who are The Mix?
The Mix are a digital charity that aim to support young people in all areas of life, whether they’re seeking advice regarding mental health, sex and relationships, money, or employment. As well as their helpline, counselling services, and online chat support, The Mix also provide a range of digital content created by and for young people to provide advice on a wide variety of issues and subjects.
How did they get started?
The Mix was born from a merger between YouthNet and Get Connected back in 2016. With young people at the heart of both charities, they joined together to expand on the range of services they were able to offer, as well as continuing their services as independent charities. The Mix are also one of eight partners working with The Royal Foundation campaigning to challenge mental health stigmas.

What do The Mix do?
The Mix offer a range of free and confidential multi-channel services, including helpline services, video content, and peer support. Growing up, young people are faced with a wide range of new challenges and issues, and The Mix believe in providing support for everyone who may need it, no matter the subject. Some of the issues they provide support for include:
- Sex & relationships
- Mental Health
- Money & Housing
- Work & Study
- Your Body & Health
- Alcohol & Drugs
As well as their amazing range of online support, The Mix also conduct case studies and research alongside both young people and professionals to delve deeper into the issues facing young people today. This research helps them and other charities working with young people to better understand the challenges racing under 25s and how the support offered can be developed and expanded upon as our world changes.

How can you get involved with The Mix?
We understand that not everyone is in a position to help charities with monetary donations, so we asked The Mix how best people can get involved with the work they do and offer whatever support they can. For anyone interested in working with The Mix, they have a superb range of ways you can volunteer with them, including peer support, helpline volunteers, and content creation.
