Mental Health Awareness Week 2024

At flourish house we have various healthy wellbeing groups such as cycling, walking, Allotment etc. but it’s more than just sports, it’s the way we move around a kitchen or hoover the carpets, it can be as simple as putting a cup in the sink, all kinds of activity give us a sense of accomplishment.

Mental Health Awareness Week got off to a great start here in the Uk, Here in Flourish Clubhouse Scotland we planned and organised a series of activities and social media posts centred around the theme of movement for Mental Health.

As you know, What we do every day has an impact on how we feel, Positive Meaningful Activities really do promote a good positive mental attitude which helps us to remain calm and so much more.

Social Media

We pre-planned a Questionaire with 15 members taking part, the answers were then added to a template on canva that seemed appropriate, I was able to upload pictures to suit the text and then the posts were scheduled for each day of MHAW, I hope you enjoyed them & thanks to everyone taking part..
