Today is World Mental Health Day. To mark the date, I joined the wonderful team from Redcar and Cleveland mind for a thought-provoking discussion and walk along the beach. I talked to them about the general challenges we all face as individuals at the moment, as well as the pressures they have faced during the COVID19 pandemic.
It was fantastic to hear that on Thursday they launched a new mental health support campaign, called: "Talk To Us." This is a reminder to everyone that Mind is still active and open, and that we are not alone through the crisis we currently find ourselves in. The team at Mind do fantastic work year-round and are there to help people struggling with their mental health.
I want to take this time to say a massive thank you to them, for the invaluable work they do, and to remind everyone that they should not suffer alone. If you are struggling, please contact Mind for free, confidential support by calling 01642 296052. Or, you can email them at: [email protected]
Our mental health is just as important as our physical health, so please talk to someone and stay safe.
