— When a child or teen is struggling with autism or their mental health, it impacts the entire family.

Their innovative online platform delivers immediate support and gives your entire family access to expert-led help whenever and wherever you need it, allowing your family to move forward together. As part of the UK’s Healios Group, they’ve helped thousands of families struggling with mental health and neurodiverse conditions, and they can help yours too.
Valeria Interviews Rich Andrews — He Is The Founder And CEO Of Healios (UK) And Meliora Health (USA).
Having close family and friends who’ve suffered from mental health conditions and dementia, Rich experienced first-hand the challenge of accessing support for both those affected by the condition and the families involved. In 2013, he founded Healios to tackle the global inequality of healthcare provision affecting over one billion people worldwide with mental health and neurodevelopmental conditions.
His passion for combining overall wellbeing, science and technology has led him to develop innovative services that optimize the ‘human touch’ in the delivery of care to empower people and their families to live healthier and happier lives. This has led Healios to become the digital leader in the delivery of specialist mental health and neurodiverse clinical services for children and young people. Healios has now expanded into the US, with its US subsidiary operations under the brand name Meliora Health.
Prior to founding Healios, Rich gained knowledge and experience of global healthcare environments and health inequalities from an international career spanning over a decade working in biotech companies.
Rich is a Board member of the Mental Health Network at the UK’s NHS Confederation and co-chairs their national Digital Mental Health Forum. He is also an avid investor in start-up businesses that have a clear societal impact.
