TESTIMONIALS

 

 

As President of MIND, the largest mental health charity in England and Wales, as an honorary Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, but most of all as someone who himself suffers from mood disorders, I cannot emphasise too strongly how everyone in the field agrees on the importance of dispersing the stigma that has for so long been Britain’s own mental health disorder. There have been many moves towards destigmatising mental health, but as always showing is so much better than telling. These are remarkable films [and have] an incredibly important part to play in schools, at the work place and in the wider world of social media and the internet .

An Alien In The Playground is a brilliant marriage of an authentic, devastating narrative and imaginative, ingenious, deeply sympathetic animation. It’s an invaluable resource for families, schools, and anyone whose life has been complicates in some way by somebody on the autistic spectrum.

Nick Hornby, British Writer

 
 
 
 

The Animated Minds series combines compelling and authentic narratives from people who have experienced mental illness, with an engaging, dramatic and (at times) quite beautiful sequence of animation. Our national library of learning resources for the social services workforce in Scotland contains over 800 resources: Animated Minds is one of the most highly prized…and my personal favorite.
