We can’t go on like this. Manchester needs change, our country needs change. With so many problems facing our country, it’s hard to feel that it can’t be any different- but it can. Things can get better. But change only happens if you vote for it 🌹 🗳️ Good luck to the hundreds of fantastic @UKLabour candidates standing across the country

The most important VITAMIN C for the future has to be creativity @NHS_GM @greatermcr @TheHorsfall @simone42nd
Replying to @DrSRanote
@DrSRanote highlights creativity's importance to both physical & mental health, how neither of these or the benefits can be separated and how we need a more integrative & holistic approach to health: instagram.com/reel/C8CRxb-NF…

Our #Movement group is all about #moving to #express yourself, in a way that feels good to you & to connect with others.⁠ The #movements can be as big or small as you wish & you can create them alone & combine them with other people's moves to make a complete sequence. #MHAW

We had fun with the activity @createcharity set. Based on emotions like joy/anxiety we drew a creatures head then passed it on for someone else to draw the torso etc. Then we explained what good mental health meant for our creations based on the 5 senses #TheFutureIsOursFestival

Feedback from the @createcharity session… ‘I was completely in the moment & not thinking about anything else’ ‘I got a lot of fun out of it, esp. drawing because it calms me down’ ‘Freedom of choice to add to the drawing in whatever way you wanted’ #TheFutureIsOursFestival
