As part of Evolution Funding’s £100 million in advances milestone celebrations, we were delighted to present Dorset Mind with a cheque for £1000.

Dorset Mind was nominated for the donation by our dealer partner Poole Audi after one of their deals led to the milestone being achieved.  

The charity, one of a network of 125 local Minds, educates, challenges mental health stigma and inequality, and encourages recovery by empowering individuals to develop resilience.  

Their 1-2-1 and group support includes active monitoring, befriending, counselling, mentoring, and support groups. The charity also delivers educational wellbeing programmes for schools and workplaces and provides volunteer opportunities.

Jason Dean, Evolution Funding Account Manager, said:

“I am delighted to present this cheque to Mind Dorset. It is an exciting time for Evolution, and I am so pleased that it has been one of my dealers that has helped us hit that £100 million milestone. Thank you to Poole Audi for their continued support and for selecting a worthy cause like Mind to receive the donation.”

Linda O’Sullivan, Dorset Mind CEO added:

“I would like to say a huge thank you for your generous donation. Support from businesses like Evolution helps us fund essential support for local people living with mental ill-health in Dorset. Coming out of the pandemic and following lockdowns, our early intervention support and education has never been more needed.”
