Yesterday, Clwb Rygbi Llandudno Rugby Club was packed with pure inspiration as our amazing friends at Ignite Gym’s NW took on their second Ignite Games! From the very first lift to the final whistle, every ounce of determination was a powerful reminder of what community, routine, and standing side-by-side can do for our mental wellbeing.

We want to say a massive, heartfelt thank you to the entire Ignite Gyms team, the spectators, and every single athlete who pushed through the pressure. Because of you, vital local mental health services will keep running right here in Conwy. Speaking of absolute legends... we have to give a massive shout-out to a phenomenal powerhouse duo: Lyndsey and Cheryl! 👑👑💙While raising extra funds wasn't a requirement to compete, this inspiring pair stepped up together, raising over £200, to support our services!

Lyndsey shared with us why tackling this challenge as a team meant so much to her:

"In October 2021, my husband suffered a heart attack at just 30. The mental toll was incredible, and my mind became a bit of a gloomier place. In January 2025, I walked through the doors at Ignite to try and change my life and I have never looked back. Working in the emergency services since 2017, I see firsthand what organisations like Conwy Mind do. These industries tend to be predominantly male, and fighting the stigma is something I am very passionate about. This event was completely out of my comfort zone, but having Cheryl by my side helped my mind to focus on just being me for an hour—not mum, not a wife, just me. It makes me feel so much lighter for it."

This is exactly what "paying it forward" looks like. It costs around £50 to fund a vital 1-to-1 support session or community check-in, meaning Lyndsey and Cheryl’s incredible joint effort has directly unlocked life-changing support for multiple people in our community when life feels a bit too much.

To everyone who took part, and to incredible teams like Lyndsey and Cheryl: you didn't just smash a fitness challenge. You broke the stigma. You showed us the power of connection. We are so incredibly proud of you. 💙

The power of our Conwy community! 💙

We have some serious shouting out to do after an incredible week of local fundraising.We are absolutely blown away by the grit, heart, and generosity shown by our community champions recently. Look at what these local legends have achieved:

🥾 Jemma Lowe & the MBOX Gym Team:
Conquered an epic, grueling 49km coastal walk from Menai Bridge to Llandudno over the weekend! They took on this distance to spotlight vital mental health statistics and have raised an absolutely phenomenal £1,500+ to stop crisis before it starts!

🏃‍♀️ Lyndsey Hopwood and others:
Prepping to push their physical limits at the Ignite Gym’s NW Games this Sunday! They’ve already smashed their initial goal and raised over £150 to kickstart their challenge.

🏠 Cartrefi Conwy:
Stepped up with fantastic fundraising and awareness support throughout Mental Health Awareness Week, helping us spark vital wellbeing conversations right across our residential communities.

What this means for Conwy County:

Combined, these incredible funds mean we can directly provide over 30 vital 1-to-1 supported self-help sessions and local 'Mental Health MOT' check-ins. When local people and businesses step up like this, it ensures we can deliver early-intervention support right when people need it most, keeping waiting lists down.

Let’s keep this amazing momentum going! Show these absolute heroes some love in the comments 💙

"For us, partnering with Conwy Mind goes far beyond simply sponsoring an event or raising money for a charity!"

When our friends at Ignite Gyms shared these words with us, it struck a massive chord. Every single day, their team sees firsthand exactly what movement, routine, community, and stepping outside your comfort zone can do for your mental health. So many people walk through gym doors carrying invisible weights, stress, anxiety, grief, loneliness, and heavy pressure from everyday life.

Sometimes, finding a safe space to move is the one hour of the day where you can finally step back and just breathe. We’ve watched incredible people completely rebuild their confidence, rediscover their purpose, and forge life-changing connections through the power of community.

That is exactly why we are so incredibly proud to stand alongside the Ignite Gyms team for the upcoming Ignite Games! 🏋️‍♂️✨

A massive, heartfelt thank you to the entire Ignite team and every single person training hard for the challenge. Your dedication keeps our vital local mental health services running across Conwy.

📺Our second Changemaker Conversation "Addiction and Recovery" is now LIVE.
This insightful conversation with Sue Gwyn (Chief Executive of Brynawel Rehabilitation Centre) focuses on recovery in a practical and human way – exploring why people turn to substances, what meaningful support can look like and how you can respond with empathy rather than judgement.

Whether you’re going through these challenges in our own life, supporting someone who is or looking to upskill in your professional career, these talks are for you.
