💜 Thinking about work, volunteering or your next steps?

We’re pleased to be working in collaboration with Connect to Work to help people explore their goals, aspirations and what their next steps might look like.

You don’t need to know what your next step is, and you don’t need to be ready for work. It’s simply an opportunity to have a relaxed, informal conversation, ask questions and talk things through, with no pressure or judgement. 💬

📍 Chesterfield Library Mental Health Wellbeing Session
📅 Tuesday 22 September
⏰ 10:30am – 12:30pm

Come along, have a chat and find out more about the support available. 🌱

Come along. Ask questions. Talk things through.
☺️No pressure. No judgement. Just a conversation.

✨ Wellbeing Wednesday! ✨

How are you arriving at today? 💭

Sometimes it helps to pause and check in with ourselves. Whether today feels calm, overwhelming, hopeful, exhausting, or somewhere in between, all feelings are valid.

👇 Drop ONE word in the comments below that describes how today feels for you. No need to explain unless you want to!

💡 Two quick check-in tips for today:

1. Take 3 deep breaths – slow down for just 30 seconds to ground yourself
2. Do one small kindness for yourself – whether that’s stepping away for five minutes, drinking a warm cup of tea, or simply giving yourself permission to rest

✨ Wellbeing Wednesday! ✨

Asking for support doesn’t mean things are "that bad." 💚

You don’t need to reach a crisis point before reaching out. Whether you’re feeling a bit overwhelmed, managing everyday stresses, or just need someone to talk to, seeking help early is a strength, not a last resort.

Everyone deserves support whenever they need it no matter how big or small it feels.

💬 Let’s normalise reaching out early. What’s one small way you support yourself or a friend when things start feeling a little heavy? Share below to inspire someone today! 👇
