Mental Health Pledge
Supporting mental health.
SWSD Music Production was created from lived experience — recovery, resilience, family, struggle, hope, and human connection.
Our Pledge
Mental health support is something very close to the heart of this project. For that reason, we have chosen to donate part of the support we receive to organisations helping people affected by mental health difficulties.
50% of net donations received through this website, after payment processing fees and the statutory tax provision, is allocated to mental health support: 25% to Mind UK and 25% to UNAFAM France. SWSD may round up these payments or make additional voluntary contributions. Donations made in another currency are recorded using the exchange rate available at the time of donation.
Why This Matters
The quiet scale of it.
Mental health touches every family, every workplace, every street. These are not numbers from far away — they are the rooms we already live in.

Transparency
SWSD Music Production is not officially affiliated with Mind or UNAFAM unless stated otherwise. We have simply chosen to support their work because it reflects values that are very important to us: listening, understanding, support, and helping people feel less alone.
To remain transparent, we will share updates on donations made whenever possible.
"Net donations" refers to the amount received after payment processing fees and a statutory tax provision are deducted. Where donations or charitable payments involve different currencies, amounts may be approximately equivalent at the exchange rate available at the time of the donation. All donation records and charitable payment receipts are kept for transparency and accountability.
