Free social media workshops for people who have something to say about mental health

If you have something to say about mental health and wellbeing, come along to one of our free social media workshops, which start on December 3.

Whether you have lived experience, you're a volunteer or carer or your work is related to mental health, we'd love to have  you along.

At Mind Waves, we meet people every day who have so much to say about mental health and wellbeing. Some people just need a bit of extra help developing the skills and confidence to make it happen online. There's no charge for the workshops, we just want you to use what you learn to spread a positive message about mental health and wellbeing.

You can book at www.mindwavesworkshops.eventbrite.co.uk  or contact us and we'll reserve you a place.
