🌟 MENTAL HEALTH WEEK 2026 – WHAT A WEEK!

What a fantastic week of community participation, creativity and connection for Mental Health Week 2026!

We hosted daily craft activities, including painted purses, leathercraft, mosaic tiles and weaving. Participants put creativity and care into every piece they created. It was a great reminder of how mindful activities can help us slow down, bring us together and create safe spaces to talk, connect and share stories.

This year's theme, Small Steps, reminded us that even small actions can make a difference to our mental health and wellbeing.

A huge thank you to everyone who participated and helped make the week such a success!
