To mark health awareness week, the YMCA are urging people on the Yorkshire coast to connect by having meaningful conversations with friends, colleagues and the wider community.
The theme for Mental Health Awareness week is anxiety and the 'Small Talks, Big Difference' initiative is in place to hopefully raise awareness of mental health and the stigma surrounding it.
The YMCA's General Manager - Liam Downey- hopes that the small talks will have a big impact on the community.
Tea Talks are opportunities to just have a drink and small talk with volunteers. They also have staff on hand to signpost people to further support if they wish.
Tea Talks are taking place:
- Monday 15th May 2023 – Eastfield Library – 10am-1pm
- Tuesday 16th May 2023 – Bridlington Community Hub – 10am-12pm
- Wednesday 17th May 2023 – YMCA Scarborough – 10am-1pm
- Thursday 18th May 2023 – Whitby Pavilion – 10am-1pm
- Friday 19th May 2023 – Filey YMCA Shop – 10am-1pm
Liam Downey says that they are looking for volunteers to help out with the sessions.
Sessions are free of charge.
