A great way to practice self-care ❤️
Get a jar, fill it with little reminders of things that make you happy. When you feel low, take one out and do it. It could be things like going for a walk, doing some crafts, or coffee with a friend ❤️❤️

🌍 World Mental Health Day 💚

Today, we want to say you that we hope you’re okay — but that it’s also okay if you’re not.

Mental health is nothing to be ashamed of. Everyone struggles sometimes, and you never have to face those moments alone. Keep talking to people you trust, keep reaching out, and keep going — one step at a time.

If you need help, please don’t wait.

You can contact a national helpline or come along to one of our support groups.

We’re here for you, and we want to help.

🫶 You matter. You are not alone.

Launching the In Sam’s Name Podcast — on World Mental Health Day!

We’re proud to launch our brand-new podcast on World Mental Health Day, a moment that perfectly reflects what In Sam’s Name is all about.

In our first episode, we introduce ourselves and share the story behind In Sam’s Name — why the group was formed, how it has grown across Nottinghamshire through various activities over the years, and our hopes for the future.

We’ll also talk about what we aim to achieve with this podcast as we continue to raise awareness and support mental health in our community.
