re;mind

NHS problem

Trauma is a contributing factor to mental ill-health and is a prominent risk factor for depression, PTSD, C-PTSD and other mental health diagnoses. Symptoms consequent upon trauma may be debilitating. People can still be struggling with the effects of trauma without a diagnosis. There is no exact data for how many people have trauma, but we know that at least 2.6 million people in the UK have PTSD. The annual NHS mental health budget spent on PTSD is approximately £2 billion. However, 75% of people with PTSD don’t get any professional support at all. With the impact of the pandemic, the numbers of people struggling with trauma are rising significantly.

The solution

re;mind is building a technology platform to help people from all walks of life better understand and recover from trauma. We provide evidence based tools, support and knowledge to individuals and organisations driven by real world data at scale. Our first product is our self-help app.

The re;mind app provides relief from multiple trauma symptoms during moments of acute distress with grounding tools to hand, day or night. It also provides a safe space to keep a diary of symptoms & triggers & reflections. It empowers users with insights & informational resources about trauma to help them understand their experiences.
