A free Community Health Fair in Preston aims to promote mental wellbeing, taking place from 10:30 AM to 3:30 PM tomorrow at the Preston Community Hub in Fishwick. This event coincides with the start of Mental Health Awareness Week and is open to everyone in the area.
Organized by Preston City Council and Lancashire County Council, the fair will provide information on mental health resources, as well as refreshments, crafts, and various activities designed to engage participants. The event’s primary goal is to inform attendees about the available support for those struggling with their mental health and overall wellbeing in Preston.
Councillor Zafar Coupland, who oversees health and wellbeing for Preston City Council, stated that the event serves as a safe space for residents to learn about improving their mental health. He emphasized the importance of understanding how external factors, such as housing conditions, can impact mental wellbeing. Coupland encourages attendees to leave the event equipped with knowledge and tools to enhance their mental health in the future.
The fair is structured to foster community support and raise awareness about the importance of mental health, particularly during Mental Health Awareness Week. By participating, individuals can connect with resources that can help them improve their quality of life and find ways to address their health concerns effectively.
