Mental heath crisis centre in Hemel Hempstead gets £1,000 donation from Amazon

A Hertfordshire mental health charity has received a £1,000 donation from Amazon in Hemel Hempstead which will go to furnishing its weekend crisis centre.

Herts Mind Network has four beds at the centre that can be used by people in crisis who need support out-of-hours.

Caroline McGoohan, from Herts Mind Network, said: “We are humbled to receive a donation from Amazon for the third year in a row and are thankful to John and his team for their continued support as we help those in the community who are struggling.”

John McEwen, site leader at Amazon in Hemel Hempstead, said: “People in our community are requiring support to maintain good mental health more than ever, so it made perfect sense for us to support a charity that is committed to providing these services in our community.”

John added: “We look forward to building on our relationship with this charity in 2022 and beyond.”
