Friday saw us all donning our black, white and red outfits for Redditch MHAG's first Valentine's Ball. The idea of the event was to embrace the wider meaning of the word 'love' - focusing not just on romantic partnerships but also the community and self-esteem which can be key parts of people's mental health and wellbeing.
The event raised nearly £500 which will be used to fund projects in Redditch. We would like to say a massive thank you to all of the staff at Studley Castle, especially Rachel. It was a great venue for the event with a fantastic team who worked hard to ensure it all went smoothly. Also a massive thanks to David, Helen, Sarah, Lee, Elaine, Mary, Mark, Rob, Lisa and Rebecca for pulling together the event and to DJ Miles and photographer Katie.
We had representatives from Samaritans, Early Help, Sandycroft, Mentor Link and Jestaminute there as well as individuals who came to support us.
Thank you again to all those who helped to make it a success.
