🧠 Have Your Say on Mental Wellbeing in Surrey 🧠

Oakleaf has teamed up with Surrey County Council to develop a questionnaire about the mental wellbeing of people living in our local community.

If you're a Surrey resident, they would love to hear from you. The survey takes just 5–10 minutes to complete and will help build a better understanding of mental wellbeing across the county.

📅 The questionnaire is open until 31 July.

👉 Complete the survey here: https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=T4BrPi1JKUuhGxz-Dh4XpLQmJA2f4B1Fh6JXfYo9wMNUNUxOMDc0VzhSRkdPUFFMUllGRExVMDYxNS4u&route=shorturl

🎭💛 A Huge Thank You to Our Volunteers! 💛🎭

As part of our National Volunteer Week celebrations, we wanted to say a special thank you to the incredible volunteers who give their time, energy, and kindness to support The Hive and our community.

To show our appreciation, we organised a trip to the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre to see Young Frankenstein, and what a fantastic evening it was! Our volunteers thoroughly enjoyed the show and the chance to spend time together outside of their volunteering roles.

A big thank you to the The Yvonne Arnaud Theatre for helping to make the evening so special. We are grateful for your support and for providing such a wonderful experience for our volunteers.

To all of our volunteers – thank you for everything you do. We couldn't do it without you! 🌟

💙 Carers Week 2026 | 8–14 June 💙

This Carers Week, we're celebrating and recognising the incredible contribution of unpaid carers across Surrey and beyond.

Carers of all ages provide invaluable support to family members, friends, and loved ones every day. Their dedication helps build stronger, more caring communities.

Action for Carers Surrey support carers aged 5–99, ensuring they have access to information, advice, wellbeing services, and opportunities to connect with others who understand their journey.

This year's theme, "Building Career Friendly Communities," highlights the importance of helping carers balance their caring responsibilities with education, employment, and personal aspirations.

Join us in saying thank you to the carers in our communities and helping raise awareness of the support available.
