Event details
Mental health problems can affect anyone, at any time. The Mental Health Foundation and NTU believe that mental health is everyone’s business.
The Mental Health Foundation is the home of Mental Health Awareness Week. And, for one week each May, the foundation campaigns around a specific theme for Mental Health Awareness Week. Since the first Mental Health Awareness Week in 2001, the Mental Health Foundation raised awareness of topics like body image, stress and relationships.
The theme for this year's series of events is kindness. The hope is to share kindness in our practices with the added benefit of helping others, to improve our mental health, emotonal wellbeing and reduce stress levels.
To celebrate Mental Health Awareness Week, NTU have pulled together a mix of online, virtual activties and workshops to get you involved and join in the conversation. From yoga sessions to tie-dying tutorials and guided meditation to cooking lessons - Mental Health Awareness Week offers a range of sessions suitable for everyone.
