The Meeting on Tuesday was a very positive one & very kind of the local authorities to offer a decision to move forward with a idea to help us but nothing in paper yet once that happens then we can get excited... 😊

Rural Rest needs so very little to get started a patch of grass to create Scotlands first purpose built facility within Coatbridge focusing on mental health within nature.

Rural Rest had a extremely important meeting on Tuesday to talk with our local authorities to bring the vision alive it's taken many meetings & contact with our local authorities I have fought for the past year to bring a spark of urgency for a concluded outcome Scotland has worst statistics in the UK su***de rates alcohol deaths drug deaths Rural Rest needs so very little to get started Rural Rest needs a patch of grass to create a walk in facility focusing on mental health within nature this will only happen with the local authorities help I don't want the vision to die before it gets a chance to help our local people & being frank is the only way forward our community hosts many approved outdoor activities bowling ect i am hoping the people from schemes voice matters enough to approve a location for a vision we would like to have activities we have an interest in to help people get involved in nature and create Scotlands first purpose built facility within Scotland focusing on mental health within nature instead of a secular vision with limited inclusion with current available outdoor well-being.

Something I wasn't sure about sharing but I feel unless the heartbreaking truth shared then nothing will change I feel our mental health that's currently supported billions from government have no impact on statistics which is horror truth so why is a pioneering vision so difficult to get started?

Bunches of flowers laid throughout our local parks people ending it I know we can do something to impact statistics and have immediate help for people time matters....
This is a very hard-hitting truth that people rather not think about but this is why am so annoyed that help to secure a location not been more forthcoming the local authorities know statistics better than most so please look at them & give us a chance to change them with the pioneering vision North Lanarkshire Council

Looking forward to nlc becoming a team with Rural Rest...

It's been over a year talking about a location so far but I'll keep going until someone sparks a conscious & helps us by approving a location for local people to build their own legacy...

Rural Rest Lanarkshire's outdoor well-being focusing on mental health within nature healing you'll feel sparking joy back into people.

Scotlands statistics cannot be hidden or not spoken about change only comes when the horrifying reality of billions spent tackling mental health so why is this not reflected in statistics our country needs a wake up call to create a facility that has direct impact on statistics to bring our community the first walk in facilities focusing on mental health no appointments time matters when dealing with urgent need I am hoping this will trickle throughout Scotland and a Rural Rest built within each community first things first we need to win this fight to get a location approved then we can bring the vision alive RURAL REST a pioneering vision for our town needs support from government North Lanarkshire Council to approve location Rural Rest has a extremely important meeting next week I hope at this stage at meeting a location provided time matters it's been a year already Rural Rest has shown proof of capacity over past few months with the outstanding events was a example of the thinking behind RURAL Rest

Government support billions into mental health hopefully they will support a forward thinking people with a vision to transform our culture towards wellbeing & have a direct positive impact on statistics people need this let's hope our local government supports us with a location agreement
John Swinney MSP

Billions spent yet zero effects on statistics?
Please support us bring this to life Scotlands sucide rate alcohol harm substance abuse Scotland needs a shift towards wellbeing Rural Rest are ready to create this the wait on location is direct impact on wellbeing of our community who need this facility.

Time matters!
