Tonic Music for Mental Health is a charity based on the south coast of England. We raise mental health awareness, challenge stigma and promote mental wellbeing through music and the arts. We already have a proud history and have helped many isolated and vulnerable people in our community.
We strive for a world where people suffering from mental illness are no longer marginalised – an inclusive and just world, where people suffering from mental illness have the hope, support and respect they deserve.
We believe that participation in music and the arts can promote and sustain the mental wellbeing of everyone involved.

Why the community needs us
Tonic runs two choirs – the Tonic Ska Choir and the Tonic Punk Choir. We also run various workshops, including vocals, guitar, bass, art & craft, creative writing and performance anxiety. All of these services are provided free of charge, and have helped many people in their recovery from mental illness.
We raise awareness, run campaigns and promote our cause at fundraisers, festivals and arts-based events. We also perform at these events to showcase the work that we do, giving Tonic users the opportunity to perform in a safe and supportive environment.
Our impact on the community
Tonic Music for Mental Health was founded upon the belief that participation in music and the arts can aid people in their recovery from mental illness.
By providing opportunities for members of our community to participate in music and the arts, we directly support them on their journeys of recovery.
