At our August 28th meeting, Club members showed support for Rotary's Mental Health Awareness program campaigns - 'Don’t Bottle It Up' and “How Are You Really?” as members raised their water bottles to show support. These mental health campaigns originated with a multi-district Rotary Conference of the four Rotary districts covering South West England and South Wales. That conference saw many Rotarians embrace Rotary mental health awareness efforts with some of the delegates joining both the "Don’t Bottle It Up campaign" and also the new variation of the program– “How are you Really?”
The mission of the Mental Health Initiatives Rotary Action Group is to Break Stigma, Raise Awareness, and Increase Capacity for Treatment and Prevention.
Many individuals are directly and indirectly affected by mental health issues, so please "Don't Bottle It Up" - there is help out there. Don't suffer in silence.
