Moodswings
Moodswings is an award winning Manchester based Charity founded in 1999 to help people recover from mood problems and the severe emotional distress they can cause.
Mood problems can range from periods of severe anxiety or depression to episodes of high and low mood. The effects on education, employment, relationships and family life can be devastating.
The work of the Charity is based on a belief that people can recover from severe mood problems and move on to lead happier and fuller lives.
From its centre in Manchester, Moodswings reaches out across the north west and beyond with a message of real hope and optimism for individuals and their families and friends.
Our evidence-based, down to earth approach is reflected in the range of innovative services we provide.
- One to one support aimed at recovery. We want people to be as well as they can be and achieve their goals in life.
- Our Recovery work is the focus of the charity and our Recovery course gives a year of intense support to people working towards specific wellness goals.
- Confidence building groups include - singing, creative writing, drama, exercise
- Workshops and courses in subjects such as - sleeping better, anxiety management, self esteem, assertiveness, anger management......

- Our helpline is available to all and provides, information, advice and support.
We now offer a community hub and cafe which is open to all and aims to not only serve great coffee but create a sense of community in the local area.
During the Covid-19 outbreak, we have stopped all of our 'in person' services temporarily, meaning there are no activity groups, workshops, or face to face appointments. Our helpline (0161 832 3736) continues to operate Monday to Friday between 10am-4pm. Please bear with us if calls take a little longer to respond to, as we are without volunteers to support us. People can also contact us via email at info@moodswings.org.uk - this also operates Monday to Friday between 10am-4pm.
