Meet our Trustee, Jaspreet
Hello, my name is Jaspreet and I’m proud to serve as a trustee on the Board of BDC Mind. I chose to volunteer with Mind because I’ve seen first-hand how vital community based mental health supporter is.
What is Mental Health Awareness Week?
Mental Health Awareness Week is a UK-wide campaign that aims to make mental health a national priority by tackling stigma and helping people to prioritise their own and others’ mental health.
The theme for this year’s Mental Health Awareness Week is community.
We will be providing expert information on how community supports mental health, sharing inspiring stories and encouraging people to support us in whatever way you can.
How would you like to support us?
