Being a Charity is hard.
Endless worry about fundraising, finances, hidden costs, and more 💥

But some days we receive messages like the pictured, and it reiterates how worth the effort the team put in is 💞

Please don’t be afraid to reach out - it’s why we’re here 💬

Looking after our physical health is important for everyone, but for those of us with a severe mental illness (SMI) such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or psychosis, it is even more important as 2 in 3 deaths for those with a SMI are from a physical illness.

We are working alongside local GP surgeries to ensure that those with a SMI can access a FREE physical health check that is personalised around their needs. This could mean providing support to attend an appointment, providing support in terms of understanding your results, as well as access to FREE ongoing community support.

If you have a SMI, or know someone that does, please complete the form below so that a physical health check can be arranged with one of our support staff: https://tinyurl.com/mv49kma2

Happy New Year from all at SAFA Cumbria 🥳 🥂!

1st January 2026.
A New Year is here 🗓️

This year, focus on your wellbeing.
If you need help, reach for it 🫂

This could be as simple as speaking to a friend,
Making a change to your daily routine,
Letting a family member know what’s going on.

Small changes can make a big impact 🌍

In 2026, aim to truly look after yourself - you deserve it 💞
