“If we all do one thing, we can change everything”
Sunday 10 October is World Mental Health Day (WMHD). After the events of the last few years our mental health remains more important than ever.
Taking inspiration from national Mind’s WMHD campaign Manchester Mind are marking the event by encouraging you to “Do One Thing” to support your own mental health and for the mental health of those around us.
Do you or your service users suffer with chronic illness, disability or pain?
Join free online courses in mindfulness skills for health and wellbeing
This autumn, Manchester City Council is funding free spaces for Manchester City residents on mindfulness courses for people with challenging health conditions including long covid, pain and disabilities of any kind, as well as for carers and family supporters.
How are you today? No really, how are you?
Have you:
GMCVO have launched the second year of a grants programme to support people from communities of identity or experience, based in Greater Manchester, that may struggle to achieve high levels of mental wellbeing.
Following the success of year 1, a second year of the GM Mental Wellbeing grants programme has been agreed which will build on the lessons learned and successful projects delivered.
Do you run a mental health peer support group?
Do you need support to grow?
The Greater Manchester Independent Mental Health Network have a number of opportunities for Greater Manchester’s peer support groups.
Manchester Local Care Organisation have successfully managed to obtain funding for local people who live or work in Ancoats, Clayton and Bradford to join this free training opportunity. Funded by Manchester Local Care Organisation, these sessions will be held via zoom with a number of dates/times available from July – September.
Are you 15 – 19 and living within the Greater Manchester area?
Are you interested in dance, music, spoken word and film making?
Do you have some time over August to commit to a brand-new project that focusses on you?
Do you have something to say about young people’s mental health?
The GM VCSE Mental Health Leadership Group is currently recruiting seven new group members – 5 locality leads for Bolton, Manchester, Rochdale, Tameside and Glossop and Trafford, and 2 systems leads, one for Equalities and one for Systems Change.
Independent Mental Health Network (IMHN) are currently collating a directory of all mental health peer support groups in Greater Manchester, with the hope it makes it clearer for potential service users to find out what is out there that may benefit them, and how to access these services, and so that they can signpost service users.
