Who Are We?
Mindfulness Scotland is a small registered charity based in Glasgow. Our vision is to contribute to the development of a more mindful and compassionate Scotland. We endeavour to engage in socially oriented rather than profit driven activity, working alongside the NHS and third sector organisations.
Most of our trustees and volunteers are health professionals with backgrounds in both physical and mental health, totalling about 175 years of clinical experience. We are all convinced of the benefits of mindfulness in our personal lives and passionate about sharing this within our areas of expertise. The charity has grown gently and organically into a warm and friendly community of practice.
