Our youth group - Youth Out Loud! (YOL!) have put together a fantastic set of resources which have been shared in schools for Mental Health Awareness Week.

Time to Change Kingston have launched some exciting events, blogs and lockdown tips for mental health awareness week!

Sticking to some sort of routine has really helped me stay focused and has been a healthy way to cope with any anxiety that this uncertain time can cause. A routine can include simple things, like brushing your teeth and getting dressed.

Through therapy, I have learnt to implement various tools to help me control my anxiety, panic attacks, and feelings of discomfort, and through trial and error I have found the ones that fit best for me and would like to share them with you.

Being with nature is something I have been passionate about since the age of five and which has been personally very beneficial to my mental wellbeing.

Goal setting helps me to develop an action plan which encourages me to carry out my tasks. It helps me to motivate myself during challenging and uncertain times we are going through.

Having lived in Kingston for many years, I'm currently a Royal Borough of Kingston councillor focussing on community mental health. I have battled depression for much of my adult life but thankfully I now feel more in control of my mental wellbeing.

I’m passionate about community-led projects and making things happen that grow my own wellbeing and the wellbeing of people around me.
10 years ago I was diagnosed with depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation.

I love to sing. It’s my therapy. I sing in the Sisterhood Choir at the Kingsgate Church.
I was diagnosed with ADHD at 47.

I am a bespoke tailor and I enjoy photography as a hobby, using mainly film cameras. I have suffered from anxiety since the age of 11 and have post traumatic stress disorder from two separate incidents.
