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.
Get out into the community with the support of a befriending volunteer. Once you are matched with a befriender based on your likes and interests you will meet for an hour a week for up to three months.
Drop in to a Tea ‘n’ Talk group in your local area. Our groups are run by friendly volunteers and give people an opportunity to connect and support each other.
From Arts & Crafts and Creative Writing to structured support groups like Confidence, Self-Esteem and Assertiveness. Explore our timetable of groups for adults.
Hope and Light is a programme of mental health services for Black African, Black Caribbean, Central and Eastern European, and South Asian communities.
