We love this! This is why we do what we do and why we raise the funds that we raise🩷

Thank you The Bridge Community for your lovely words, let’s see what winter brings this year👀 xx

Thank you to JB Installations NW LTD for sponsoring us on another wonderful community event🤩

✨ COMMUNITY HERO SPOTLIGHT ✨

There are hero’s all around us and we want to spotlight those that have gone above and beyond! 🙌

This week we are celebrating the amazing folks over at Alpha Minds CIC NW. Their latest donation to us from their recent collection was a whopping 113kg of essential food and toiletries!
🤩

They saved us during the Christmas chaos with their winter collection and now they’ve done it again and saved us after the summer holidays madness. ❄️☀️

The team are constantly outshining themselves and showing the true meaning of community. We can’t wait to see what they achieve next! 👀

NOT ALL HEROES WEAR CAPES! 💙🧡

What an incredible honour it is to actually see the difference we all made by coming together! When we arrived at Foryd Community Centre the shelves were pretty much completely bare and now they are all full with much needed essentials again! The work you guys do if fantastic and it’s clear that your services really are much needed!

Winter collection is already underway🤭 So if you’ve got any spare food please get in touch and we’ll come and collect

Love always - The Alpha Minds Team🩵❤️

Big shout out to our sponsors JB Installations NW LTD

💜 Su***de Prevention Month 💜

September is Su***de Prevention Month, a time to raise awareness, encourage conversations, and remind people that help and hope are always available.

The statistics shared in this post are UK facts and represent real people, real families, and real communities affected by su***de every day.

📊 Some of the facts highlighted in this carousel include:

• Around 1 in 4 people in the UK have experienced suicidal thoughts at some point in their lives.
• Every 90 minutes, someone in the UK or Ireland dies by su***de.
• Men are around three times more likely to die by su***de than women.
• Loneliness and isolation can significantly impact mental wellbeing, particularly among older adults.

Behind every statistic is a person who mattered.

This month, take a moment to check in with a friend, family member, neighbour, colleague, or even someone you haven’t spoken to in a while. A simple conversation could make a bigger difference than you realise.

💜 Be kind.
💜 Listen without judgement.
💜 Ask twice.
💜 Remind people they are not alone.

Your story isn’t over yet.

If you’re struggling and need support, please speak to someone you trust, contact your GP, call NHS 111, or in an emergency call 999.

A coffee with a view 🤩☕

Whilst in Benidorm back in June, I took a couple of hours to myself away from all the hustle, bustle, and party life to walk up to one of the most iconic landmarks in the area – The Cross.
It’s amazing what a little time out, some fresh air, and a good walk can do for the mind.

With all the excitement lately from the Alpha Minds collections, fundraising, and transforming the garage into a food bank storage space, I can honestly say I’m ready for a break.
In just a couple of days, I’ll be heading off to Turkey for 10 days of relaxation, sunshine, and switching off from the world for a while.

Life can get busy, overwhelming, and demanding at times, so this is your reminder to take time for yourself too. Even if it’s just a coffee with a view, a walk, or an hour of peace and quiet, your mind will thank you for it

Love always - Tommy xx
