12th - 18th May 2025 

              

In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Week, we're launching a community-wide campaign to celebrate the power of connection and to highlight the vital link between community and mental wellbeing.  

At the heart of this year’s message is a simple but powerful truth: community matters. Whether through shared interests, geographic location, or values, being part of a community enhances mental health by providing support, reducing isolation, and increasing resilience.

The power of Community

Community is more than just a shared space — it’s a lifeline. A strong sense of belonging contributes to better mood, improved self-esteem, and greater resilience. Research shows that being part of a community can significantly reduce stress, anxiety, and feelings of loneliness.

Get involved! Together, we can make a difference

For individuals:

• Smile and say hello: Small gestures build big connections.
• Be kind: Acts of kindness boost self-esteem and build community.
• Spread the word: Let others know that Doncaster Mind is here to help.
• Fundraise: Grab our fundraising pack and make a difference.
• Volunteer: Share your time and passion — be part of something meaningful.

For local organisations & companies:

• Adopt Doncaster Mind as your Charity of the Year
• Fundraise as a team for morale and mental health
• Book mental health training to support your staff and create a healthier workplace.
