On Saturday 9th October we held a fantastic Family Fun Day to celebrate World Mental Health Day at Kirkholt Community Church.

The atmosphere at the event was fantastic, we were joined by Ian, our Entertainer who opened our event, Chorus of Others whose wonderful voices filled the room, fun Zumba sessions, Skylight Circus Arts,  henna and face painting, and fantastic food from Andy at our [email protected] Café!

We were joined by Turning Point, Thinking Ahead Caring & Sharing Andy’s Man Club, Your Trust (ex Link4Life) HMR Circle, DWP Disability and Living Well who came with their information stalls full of useful information.

We had a quiet area dedicated to our Dementia Support Services with Dementia Friendly activities and lots of chatting and we walked together around Kirkholt on a Memory Walk.

Our Volunteers created a fantastic Black History month display and brought in wonderful artifacts, books and information for us to share with the community.
