Our Mind Matters

Last week I attended the first conference organised by a Luton charity, Our Mind Matters. I spoke on  the challenges of supporting students of diverse cultures and faiths as part of my role as the Mental Health Advisor here at the University of Bedfordshire.

The charity focuses on promoting mental health and reducing stigma in the diverse communities of Luton. Their vision is:

“Faith and culture play a critical role in understanding mental health and in the recovery from mental illness”

Take a look at what they are doing in our local community.
