💚 World Mental Health Day 2026 💚

Today is World Mental Health Day, a reminder that looking after our mental health is just as important as looking after our physical health.

At Eyres Monsell Club for Young People, we see every day just how important it is for people to have somewhere they feel welcome, supported and listened to.

Through our Mental Health Café, counselling service and wider community activities, we aim to provide a safe and welcoming space where people can come together, talk, build friendships and access support when they need it.

We know that life isn’t always easy and that sometimes even the smallest things, like having someone to talk to, a friendly face or simply somewhere to go, can make a real difference.

Mental health affects us all, regardless of age or circumstances, and nobody should feel they have to struggle alone.

We are incredibly proud of the support we offer within our community and of the staff, volunteers and everyone who helps make our centre a place where people feel they belong.

💚 It’s okay not to be okay.

💚 It’s okay to ask for help.

💚 And sometimes, just being there for someone can make all the difference.

💙 THIS CLUB GIVES YOUNG PEOPLE A VOICE.

Youth work isn’t just about providing activities for young people. It’s about listening to them.

At our Club, we want young people to have a genuine say in the opportunities available to them, the activities we deliver and the community they are growing up in.

Through our Volunteer Academy, young people can develop skills, build confidence, take on responsibility and have their voices heard.

Many then give their time back to the Club — volunteering alongside our team during youth sessions and supporting the next generation of young people coming through our doors.

That’s something we’re incredibly proud of.

For over 65 years, generations of young people have grown up with this Club.

We want the next generation to have their say too. 💙

Their Club. Their community. Their voice.

Celebrating Our Amazing Volunteers! 💜

Following our Eyres Monsell Volunteering Evening last week, we wanted to take a moment to say a huge THANK YOU to all of our wonderful volunteers.

We are incredibly lucky to have so many people who give their time, energy and support to the club and our community. Whether you help regularly, occasionally, behind the scenes or at our activities and events – you are a really important part of what we do. 🥰

We also wanted to give a special mention to Harriet, who has been recognised as an Outstanding Volunteer and voted by the staff team and volunteers as our volunteer of the month! 🌟👏

Thanks to a very generous donation from one of our lovely local supporters, Harriet will receive £25 to spend in Thelma’s Kitchen as a little thank you for everything she does. This scheme will continue until Christmas, with staff & volunteers being able to vote for the member of staff/volunteer they feel most deserves a free lunch!!! ☕🍰💜

Well done Harriet – very well deserved!

And once again, a massive thank you to ALL of our volunteers. We genuinely couldn’t do what we do without you. 💜
