We're launching a series of the Keighley and Worth Valley mental wellbeing videos, to help you find out more about local services.
Today is all about Vital Projects - an advocacy project, helping people have their voices heard in health and care.

It can be daunting talking to a GP about your mental health. But feeling prepared can make a big difference. Read our advice here: bit.ly/4brfFQJ
ALT Graphic with text: Speaking to your GP about your mental health
ALT Graphic with text: Before your appointment 1. Ask a friend or relative to come with you for support. 2. Ask if you want a specific GP: for example, a male or female GP or one that speaks your first language. 3. Prepare a list of the concerns you want to discuss. Think about your symptoms and how they affect you.
ALT Graphic with text: During your appointment 1. Make notes during the appointment if you need to, and write down questions. 2. Make sure you understand what the next steps are before you leave.
ALT Graphic with text: What might happen next? 1. You may be given a diagnosis, for example, of anxiety, stress or depression. 2. You might be referred to another service such as Talking Therapy. 3. You might be prescribed medication, and have the risks and benefits explained to you.

I struggle with motivation, especially when feeling low. Neurodiversity complicates things as I always find tasks to do. This week, I'm committing to 5K a day during #MHAW24 #Momentsformovement.
If you would like to join the challenge go to buff.ly/3Ug0V0w for details.
Achieved 10K steps on Day One @vitalprojects18. Legs are definitely feeling it today! A few more steps than the previous week! #MomentsForMovement
Following a delightful mindful walk in Lister Park, I've made some progress with my step count. Even though I haven't hit my target every day, I'm committed to staying active, and I'm truly experiencing the benefits, both physically and mentally. #MHAW24 #MomentsForMovement
We hope you are taking steps, no matter how small, during this Mental Health Awareness Week. Keep in mind, whether it's a mere 10 minutes or more, every action you take significantly contributes to your mental health #MHAW24 #Momentsformovement
