🔵 Mental Health - strength in community

This year’s Mental Health Awareness Week takes place between Monday, May 12 and Sunday, May 18.

‘Community’ has been chosen as the theme of this year’s Awareness week, and the importance of knowing there’s always someone available to listen - regardless of the situation, no-one should ever suffer in silence.

And to the wider-community - that friend or family member you haven’t heard from in a while, drop them a message, give them a call - it may just be the most important call of both your lives.

Each day we’ll share helpline numbers and website links. Please remember - there’s always an answer to whatever crisis you face.

It's OK not to be OK.
