📅🌿 Always Another Way Wellbeing Calendar 2028 – Monthly Photo Competition 🌿📅

We're back looking for your photos for the next month of our Always Another Way Wellbeing Calendar 2028! 📸💚

Thank you to everyone who has supported our photo competition so far. We're excited to keep showcasing the amazing people, places and moments that make our community special.

Each month from October 2026 to August 2027, we're inviting you to submit a photo inspired by a wellbeing theme. The winning photos will feature in our printed 2028 Wellbeing Calendar, which will go on sale later in 2027, with proceeds supporting our mental health and wellbeing projects across West Cumbria.

✨ November's Theme: Community ✨

🤝 Show us what community means to you!

Community is all about connection, belonging and the people who make a difference in our lives. Whether it's a local event, a group coming together, acts of kindness, friends and family, community spirit in action, or a place that brings people together, we'd love to see your photos celebrating the people and moments that make West Cumbria special.

📸 Need some inspiration? Think about the little things that bring people together, the places where friendships grow, or the moments that show the kindness and support within our community. We can't wait to see what you capture!

How it works: 📸

- One wellbeing theme each month
- One photo entry per person
- November entries close on 14th November 2026
- Our Top 3 photos will be shared for a public vote on 15th November 2026
- The winning photo will be announced after 24 hours of voting
Monthly winners will be selected throughout the competition, with the final winners announced following the last submissions in August 2027.

🤝 Businesses and organisations: We're also looking for sponsors for the calendar. Sponsorship helps keep production costs down, ensuring more funds go directly into supporting local wellbeing and mental health services. Sponsors will be recognised in the calendar and across our social media platforms.

📸 Get snapping and send us your photos – we can't wait to see your take on COMMUNITY! 💚

From stunning coastal views and woodland walks to local wildlife, sunsets and gardens in bloom, show us the natural beauty that boosts your wellbeing!

😂 Need inspiration? Check out our CEO’s attempt at this month’s theme… Can you do better?

📸 How it works:

- One theme each month

💚 World Mental Health Day – You Are Not Alone 💚

On 10th October, we marked World Mental Health Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness, encouraging conversations and reminding everyone that mental health matters.

As a charity with a clear mission to improve mental wellbeing across West Cumbria, we want to take this opportunity to remind you that it’s okay to reach out.

Reach out if you’re struggling. Reach out to a friend who might need a listening ear. Check in with your loved ones, start a conversation, and remember that sometimes, simply asking “Are you okay?” can make a real difference.

At our charity, we believe that everyone deserves access to support. Our services are free, accessible and welcoming, and we are always here for an open, honest conversation about mental health and wellbeing, whatever that looks like for you.

You don’t need to be in crisis to ask for help, and you don’t have to face things alone.

Together, we can break down the stigma surrounding mental health, encourage people to speak openly and build a community where everyone feels supported, heard and valued.

Let's keep the conversation going, not just on World Mental Health Day, but every day. 💙

Have you considered alternative therapies to support your mental wellbeing?🌿

Everyone's wellbeing journey is different, and what works for one person may not work for another. That's why we offer a range of alternative therapies, delivered by trained and experienced professionals, to complement more traditional approaches.

Alternative therapies can help to:
💚 Reduce stress and anxiety
🧘 Promote relaxation and calm
🌱 Improve emotional wellbeing
✨ Increase self-awareness and mindfulness
🌼 Boost confidence and resilience
🤝 Provide a supportive space to focus on you

Whether you're looking for a different approach or would like to explore additional ways to support your mental wellbeing, we're here to help you find what works best for you.

📧 Email us or scan the QR code to find out more about the therapies we offer and how they could support your wellbeing journey.

A small jar, a big step forward 💛

Last week, one of our support workers helped a young person create a special glass jar filled with reasons why he loves and appreciates his mum. Each message was carefully chosen, showing real thought, care, and reflection.

As part of his journey, he has been working hard to strengthen and repair their relationship, and this activity provided a safe, positive way for him to express his feelings and recognise the things he values most about her.

While it may look like a simple jar, it represents something much bigger: growth, connection, gratitude, and the courage to open up. We're incredibly proud of the progress he's making and the meaningful steps he's taking towards rebuilding important relationships. 💙
