Trip is on 3rd May. Meet at Central Baptist Church before 10.40 am. Costs £7. Please let Gerard know if you want to come as there are only 8 places on minibus.

13th - 19th May is Mental Health Awareness Week.  As part of that week, we are taking the opportunity of organising an event on 15th May.  As part of the event we want to take the opportunity to share about the new Southampton Mental Health Network and for individuals and organisations to share about much of the good work that is going on to support mental well being in the City and how we can support one another.

Please will you disseminate to interested colleagues and post on your websites and social media and encourage people to attend.

At this time, it is important for the success of event for people to contact us about what contribution they might like to bring.

We are looking for :-

• people wanting to have a information stand/stall
• short presentations
• participatory workshops 

To represent as broad a perspective as possible we particularly want to represent the following:-

• Services for specific age groups  i.e. young people's work/older people
• Community places that enhance well being
• Specific services available for mental health in the city 
• Other specialised services offering support to specific needs 
• Activities available in the city i.e. community projects, leisure and sports, arts, music etc.
• The role of the churches/faith communities

Please communicate with us regarding your ideas about how to make this a really successful event and let us know as soon as possible what you would like your involvement to be.

Thank you on behalf of
Southampton Mental Health Network
