Championing Women's Mental Health

Championing Women's Mental Health

We explore the importance of championing women's mental health and breaking down the barriers that prevent women from seeking help. Here we try to highlight the vulnerability of women to mental health issues due to the many roles and responsibilities they have. Encouraging everyone to prioritise mental health care as a form of self-care and seek support when needed.

We also emphasise the role of qualified therapists in providing a confidential space for individuals to learn coping skills and techniques. Calling everyone to be kind, compassionate and a champion of women's mental health.
