Monday 12th May
We’re proud to support the Mental Health Foundation this Mental Health Awareness Week – 12 to 18 May. This year’s theme is all about celebrating community, and how it supports our mental health and wellbeing. Communities connect, support, and give us a sense of belonging and purpose. From local to global, online to in-person, we all need community. What's yours?

Simple acts of kindness can help you feel like you belong. Chatting with your neighbours, greeting people at your local café, or starting a conversation at the bus stop can lead to new friendships. Small acts of kindness, like helping someone with their shopping or smiling at people you pass, can also make you feel more connected and spread positivity.

One of the best ways to connect with others is by doing activities you enjoy. Join a club or group that focuses on your interests, like sports, music, reading or gaming. You’ll likely meet people who enjoy the same things as you.
