This year we are creating three intentional opportunities during our two-day convention to ensure that members of the community interact with each other and local service providers exhibiting around the topic of mental health. We call it Connect & Grow Pockets.

The hope is that all attendees of the convention, whether they represent the organisations exhibiting or vendors from the market or professional mental health practitioners or general public, will enjoy and participate in these pockets by spending the first 45 minutes in the main hall and then choosing to join one of the two relevant workshops that will be facilitated.

Have a look at what is in store for the afternoon Pocket on Saturday!

There is no better way to spend your Saturday.
This is the kind of event we get excited about.
This is the urgent SONA we should be talking about.

What is the state our country's mental health? Do all these problems we can do nothing about - loadshedding, crime, corruption etc - really affect us? And if so, how? How seriously does South Africa take mental health concerns? Have you heard of 'presenteeism'? What can we, local families, communities and business owners do about improving our mental health?

Join the wonderful UPside team and a few leading experts in the conversation.

The World Health Organisation indicates that mental health will be the biggest crisis we will face on the planet by 2030. In a recent report by the Mental State of the World, South Africa scored the lowest average on mental health well-being among 34 countries worldwide. The data comes as no surpris...

We are so excited to be joining hands with Upside as they also put the important conversation of Mental Health on the table! This topic has so many layers and we are so pleased with the way this event supports the same narrative as the Community Mental Health Convention.

During Mental Wellness Month in October, Upside, a Cape Town-based community services non-profit, is hosting a seminar on Saturday, 7 October, on the state of South Africa's mental health and its impact on NGOs, education and the economy with:
● Prof Mario Smith, Psychologist and Professor at UWC.
● Prof Daniel Louw. Professor in Theology and Pastoral Care Univ. Stellenbosch and
● Anelia Coetzee, People and Strategy Development Expert

β€œThrough this seminar, we hope to promote stakeholder collaboration to prioritise mental wellness through preventative action. This can be achieved through capacity building of our community leaders, positive and informative messaging and facilitating an open discussion on mental health at home, school and the workplace,” said Upside Director Neal Bresler.

Join Upside in this important conversation on mental wellness to equip community leaders about mental health, its benefits, and available resources.

Ticket sales are limited, so take advantage of this opportunity to connect with and learn from Upside's experts.

Sharing food is one of the most powerful ways to be community!
It is around a good cup of coffee, a delicious burger or freshly baked pastries that we connect and share in our most authentic forms. It is in these spaces that we want to connect and share over mental health and the impact it is having on our community.

Come join us for our lovely local market that will include a whole range of food vendors, locally made products and other surprises.

Let's be community, let's change the narrative.
