Welcome.
Who are we
Kintsugi Hope is a charity based in the UK striving to make a
difference to peoples mental wellbeing.
'Kintsugi' (金継ぎ)
is a Japanese technique
for repairing pottery with seams of gold. The word means
'golden joinery' in Japanese. This repairs the brokenness
in a way that makes the object more beautiful, and even more
unique than it was prior to being broken. Instead of hiding
the scars it makes a feature of them.
We want to see a world where mental and emotional health is understood and accepted, with safe and supportive communities for everyone to grow and flourish.
