Mental Health Awareness Week

Mental Health Awareness Week

 

This is some resource info https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/campaigns/mental-health-awareness-week?gclid=CJTp57H2-NMCFUE6GwodyUMLfA  

Good mental health is more than the absence of a mental health problem. This Mental Health Awareness Week, we are going to look at mental health from a new angle. Rather than ask why so many people are living with mental health problems, we will seek to uncover why too few of us are thriving with good mental health.
