Welcome to your Summer 2022 supporter update! This edition is all about connections; how loneliness affects our mental health, and how we can strengthen our ties to help protect it.
- Our Mental Health Awareness Week 2022 research delved deeper into the issue of loneliness; who it is affecting and how it relates to mental health.
- We spotlight two incredible programmes, Voices and Visibility Scotland and the Perthyn Project in Wales, supporting people from refugee/asylum seeking backgrounds in deepening connections to each other and their wider community.
- We saw people gather, share, and express themselves at the Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival and have a dispatch from prize winner Eilidh Morris.
- There's so many ways to get involved with our challenge events, and one of our brave skydivers, Steph shares her story.
