Recovery Steps for Mental Health Awareness Week (13th – 19th May)

Mental Health Awareness Week is a time to challenge stigma and promote
wellbeing. This year, we’re introducing “Recovery Steps”, a series of events
designed to bring people together and support good mental health through
movement – this year’s theme.

Step Count Challenge with One Ren
We’re teaming up with One Ren to organise a Step-count Challenge promoting
mental wellbeing through movement. Track your steps throughout the week,
contributing to a collective goal of covering as much ground as possible. Every step
counts, symbolising progress and support for mental health.

Photography Exhibition: Capturing Movement
Movement signifies more than just physical motion – it’s about progress in mental
health journeys. RAMH invites you to participate in a photography exhibition centred
around the theme of Movement. Submit a photo and share a brief narrative on how
movement intersects with mental wellbeing. Selected entries will be displayed during
Mental Health Awareness Week in Renfrew Sports Centre, showcasing the different
experiences and perspectives within the community.
Submit your entries to enquiries@acumennetwork.org by May 10th to be part of the
exhibition.

Fun Run with a difference with WCS
Join us on Thursday May 16th, from 12-2 pm at Renfrew Sports Centre for a Fun
Run with a difference. Rather than focusing on distance, this event celebrates
individual journeys. Whether you’re sprinting a 10k or walking 100m, the goal is to
showcase solidarity for those embracing positive steps towards mental wellness.
Contact Colette Fleming at colette.fleming@ramh.org or call 0141 881 8811.
Participation is encouraged for all, with a suggested donation of £3 supporting our
work, or free if fundraising for RAMH
