Thanks to grant funding from Mansfield Building Society, we are pleased to now have a defibrillator installed at our premises, giving us the ability to respond quickly and effectively in the event of a cardiac emergency. In situations where every second matters, having access to this equipment can make a critical difference before emergency services arrive.

Like many charities, balancing essential service delivery with the cost of additional equipment can be challenging. Thanks to this funding award and the support of a local business Defib4Life, we have been able to invest in a Lifepak CR2 Fully Automatic Defibrillator, along with a secure indoor cabinet to house it. This ensures the device is both accessible and protected, ready for use if it is ever needed.

It’s Mental Health Awareness Week!
This year’s theme is ACTION 🚶‍♀️‍➡️
Sometimes the biggest changes start with the smallest steps. Whether it’s a 10-minute walk, finally grabbing that coffee with a friend, or just setting a boundary at work. This is a great reminder that small steps can spark meaningful change in caring for our mental health.😄
