The Mind Media Awards are back for 2018 and we’re looking for entries from across the media.

The Awards celebrate the best reporting and portrayals of mental health in print, broadcast and digital media. Whether you’ve run an undercover investigation, developed an awareness-raising podcast or scripted an exceptional storyline, we’d love to hear from you.

Accurate and sensitive reporting of mental health is vital for both the media industry and for mental health.
