anyone struggling and reaches out to us has the support
that they need. We are now able to assist with both free
services as well as directing individuals who ask to paid
services as well. Our team itself is very knowledgeable in
this field and able to provide additional support. Running
the #ME projects and initiating The No JudgeMENt for
male mental health has gained a lot of support and
engagement. Equally, our focus on children’s mental
health is going superbly too.
**DISTRIBUTION OF CARDS/ LEAFLETS**
Our networking, activities, events and social media
platforms have enabled us to constantly work
towards achieving our main aims which are:
-To raise awareness of mental health and
mindfulness within our community by enabling
access to existing services
-To support existing organisations to influence and
educate our community in ensuring that physical and
emotional well-being is a priority for everyone.
We regularly receive very positive and encouraging
feedback from the community. Members of the
public have informed us they were able to get help
and support from numbers provided by The Heera
Foundation and thank us for making them aware of
services available to them.
We have reached out to as many people as possible
and spread the message that ‘it’s o.k not to be o.k’| and encouraged people to talk openly about mental health issues and have helped remove the stigma of shame associated with Mental Health. We have received a great response towards our social media platforms such as facebook, instagram and twitter and our followers are growing rapidly. We regularly give the public information on self-care and wellbeing as well as promote the mental health services that are available. Our Social Media is developing its followership and our innovative approaches continue to reach out to all communities. We have undertaken workshops and presentations on mental health matters and been given great positive feedback on the knowledge shared and imparted. We have supported members of the community who now volunteer as they too wish to help others. ## Additional information (optional) You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |||| |---|---|---| |Achievements against
