Today marks the beginning of #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek which will be taking place from 10-16 May 2021. This year’s theme is Nature and how connecting with the natural world can support good mental health.
During Mental Health Awareness Week, why not try to make a habit each day of connecting to the nature in your local area? Stop to listen to the birdsong, smell the freshly cut grass, take care of a house plant, notice any trees, flowers or animals nearby. Take a moment to appreciate these connections.
We would love you to share images/videos/or just sound recordings of the nature on your doorstep (and how this made you feel) on social media using #ConnectWithNature and #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek
