Social Events
MASH provides safe spaces for socialising, informative sharing, fun, learning and new recreational opportunities for our participants.
At the heart of the hub!
We plan to reinstate our informative and fun drop-in and social events for people with a lived experience of mental health.
The social events form the main hub where participants, including mentors and advocates, can come together, share and support their ideas, interests or milestones and enjoy social interaction and/or a meal in a safe and informal atmosphere.
Social living is the best!
These monthly social and activity events (spread across districts of Birmingham and Solihull) will be at the very heart of our broader programmes of support and engagement, and will seek to serve two broad purposes:
- For the programme co-ordinator and participants to touch base, share progress, good news stories etc, and, most importantly, for the participants to raise any issues that they may need support with outside the sessions.
- To take part in structured activities in the form of guest motivational speakers (survivors / community activists, leaders etc.) and or an interesting or fun activity (silkscreen print, short film / discussion, industry / workplace outings and others).
Tippa Naphtali, Programme Co-ordinator, said;
“A well-being driver for all people (those with mental health support needs or not) is the realization of their potential and the pursuance of their aspirations.
“Not unlike many other health issues, those with mental health support needs may have to accept this will be a condition for life. Having said that it is important to acknowledge that living with any condition does not mean one cannot achieve a reasonable quality of life or pursue career aspirations and / or personal pursuits.”
The Mentoring & Advocacy Support Hub (MASH) is an Unregistered Charity incubated by Catalyst 4 Change CIC
