As the Mind Your Mood co-ordinator for both the Coleraine campus and Magee campus, I have observed first hand how essential Mind Your Mood is to all our students. Mind Your Mood offers students free workshops, events and activities that helps improve their overall wellbeing. It is a student led initiative that aims to break the stigma and raise awareness around mental health. It empowers students to seek help and in turn gives them the confidence to help others. During my time on this placement many students have told me that Mind Your Mood has helped them make friends and feel like they are a part of something worthwhile. As someone who has struggled with their own mental health, I understand how important Mind Your Mood is, especially as mental health is still considered a taboo subject today. Together we can stick it to the stigma!

Every penny donated will be used towards helping students and breaking the stigma that encompasses mental health , thank you.
