Young People’s Mental Health Event
Lilly, Zahid & Faisal are now working with 10 different places of worship. In March 2021 we have delivered one training session (with lots more planned) of 'BAME Children and Young Persons Mental Health Awareness' for members of Places of Worship - Teachers/Faith Leaders and other key members. We have delivered Mental Health Champion peer to peer support for 2 Masjids where 12 young persons have been trained up to provide M H peer to peer support.
Poetry from the Khushi Group
The Long term Khushi group members welcomed Lilly to their Thursday Session. The group ran successfully, we discussed options for mental wellbeing and the ladies read out a beautiful poem. Over the next few weeks, we will be doing light exercises and poetry.
