This week is Mental Health Awareness Week. 💚

Across our libraries, we’re helping to raise awareness, challenge stigma, and encourage more open conversations around mental health and wellbeing.

Our library staff have created thoughtful book displays filled with stories, resources, and recommendations that offer support for and insight into mental health.📚

For upcoming events, visit our Eventbrite pages, and for mental health support and advice, head to the link in our bio to visit the Mental Health Foundation.
