Welcome to the new Mix: Bigger, bolder & built with and for you

At The Mix, we believe that no young person should ever have to face life's challenges alone. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce our brand new website – a fresh home for a bigger, better range of support, services and community designed with young people, for young people.

Today marks a new chapter for us at The Mix. Our digital space, designed hand in hand with young people, has evolved to meet the real needs of young people today, offering more ways than ever to get help, connect with others, develop life skills and build confidence in managing mental health.

Introducing new ways to get support

One of the most exciting services we’re proud to launch is our new LifeSkills, giving you the tools to build your own resilience, knowledge and manage your mental health at your own speed. Whether you want quick tips or deeper learning, it’s there when you need it.

We will also be launching the UK’s first national Peer Chat service soon. It will be a space where young people can talk to trained peers who truly understand what they’re going through – because they’ve been there too. Whether you need to vent, get advice or just feel heard, Peer Chat is a safe, welcoming place to reach out.

And that’s just the start. Our upgraded, free and confidential support ecosystem now includes:

• Expert article content covering everything from mental health to relationships, work, lifestyle, money and more.
• Our trusted community and discussion boards, where you can share, listen and find connection any time of the day.
• Coaching from our counsellors, all there to listen and support you through your problems and help you find ways to cope in a confidential, safe space.
• Urgent crisis support through text messaging service Shout, providing free 24/7 crisis support across the UK.
• Social media channels packed with support, inspiration and real conversations.
• The Mix Six Podcast, where no topic is off limit and guests explore subjects that really matter to them.
• Chatbot to help you find the right support quickly and easily.
• Volunteering: opportunities to learn new skills and make a direct difference.

Be part of the movement

This moment is about more than just a new website — it’s about building something bigger, something more accessible, easier to navigate and with your journey at its heart. It’s about making sure that every young person, no matter where they are or what they’re facing, has somewhere to turn and someone who gets it.

There are so many ways to join our new community. Volunteering with The Mix is a great way to give back, grow your skills and be part of something bigger. So, whether you're looking to get involved, join our community or just know that support is always a click away, we’re here for you.

This is just the beginning — and we’d love for you to be part of it.
