Breathworksfoundation

The aim of the Breathworks Foundation, a registered charity, is to focus on building community, conducting research into mindfulness and funding charitable activities such as bursary places. 

The Foundation has three core aims:

• To help those affected by pain, illness or stress by providing information about mindfulness based approaches to health.
• To undertake and support research into the efficacy of mindfulness based approaches for the management of pain, illness or stress
• To promote mindfulness based activities

We provide information and support to professionals and members of the public interested in the applications of mindfulness.

We work with individuals, training providers and other institutions to improve the education of healthcare and other professionals, disseminating the results of research and promoting the use of mindfulness-based approaches.

You can help support the Foundation by joining us as a member. We have three different membership categories, which enable you to gain access to a wealth of information about the use of mindfulness-based approaches. By joining you will gain access to a network of like minded people, including those benefiting from the application of mindfulness as well as those involved in helping others. You will also be helping us provide funding for research and other activities.  

We are developing a range of member benefits over the year aimed at providing regular communication and sharing of ideas. These include newsletters, more frequent information sharing using email, websites and social networking.

In addition you can choose to help fund our work through one-off and regular donations, including legacy giving. If you are a UK taxpayer, supporting our work in this way means we receive extra support through the Gift Aid scheme.
