Primordial Radio Mental Health Info

One thing we do talk about, a lot, which is really important to us and comes into close focus right now, is mental health.

It is Mental Health Awareness Week next week (18-24 May 2020) and this year’s theme is kindness.

We know we have this in abundance within the Fam and would love to hear from you if you have been a recipient or instigator of a kind act for another PRFam member recently or are planning something during lockdown. Drop an email to [email protected]
Because there is loads of information flying around at the moment and it’s all a bit overwhelming, we have pulled together some resources that may be helpful:

  • Dewsbury’s Seize the Opportunity poster and some other hints from the #PRFam – hit up Facebook here
  • Mind has loads of information available online to help manage your mental health and wellbeing during this difficult time – Visit the Mind website

Our friends at Manchester Mind have also been compiling some useful resources and tips to support you and your family.

  • Support for young people is available here
  • Wellbeing tips/ tips for working at home here
  • 5 Acts of Kindness – check them out here
