This Mental Health Awareness Week, we’ve teamed up with someone pretty special🧠💙 You might recognise Owen Wood from Race Across the World - and this May, he’s moving 30 kilometres to raise money for two incredible organisations: @giveusashoutinsta and @themixuk Every 30 seconds someone reaches out for mental health support. These services are there when it matters most - free, confidential and available 24/7. But they need our help to stay that way. As part of our YOU+ Brain Month, we’re proud to be backing Owen and this cause - because at Westminster Lodge, we believe your mental health deserves just as much attention as your physical health. And here’s the good news - you can take on your own challenge right here. Our pool, gym, running track and the beautiful Verulamium Park on our doorstep means you have everything you need to get your kilometres in. Come down, get moving and be part of something bigger this week🏊‍♂️🏃‍♀️🧠 Watch Owen’s story. Share it. And if you can - donate or take on the challenge yourself. Every step, every kilometre, every pound raised keeps these life-saving conversations going. 🔗 Link in bio to donate #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #RaceAcrossTheWorld #TheMix #EveryoneActive #WestminsterLodge

We’re here for you. Stay tuned as we release a new film each day of #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek. First up tomorrow, ‘Rusty’ 🤖🎥 #TheMixUK #MoreThanOneStory

Today is the start of Mental Health Awareness Week. We’re shouting loudly that great mental health care isn’t just clinical, it’s human. It’s the kind voice at the end of the phone when you’re worried about rent and too unwell to work. It’s the adviser who listens actively, rather than waiting for their turn to speak. And it’s you reminding friends and loved ones that these contact details can save lives.
