We want to extend a huge thank you to Mayor, Cllr David Vasmer, who hosted a wonderful event in the Dingle in Shrewsbury's Quarry on Friday 20th September,
During the event, guests enjoyed fizz and canapes from Jennys Catering and were entertained by Shropshire Youth Theatre (SYT) performing excerpts from A Midsummer Night’s Dream in the beautiful Dingle surroundings. The event was blessed with late summer evening sunshine and illuminated areas, creating a magical atmosphere. The raffle raised £460 for the Mayor’s Charity Fund, supporting Omega Ending Isolation Ending Loneliness and MHS Shropshire.

Thank you, Gemma and team, for your incredible effort and generosity!

Our amazing events volunteers had the pleasure of attending The Shrewsbury Folk Festival this weekend. They offered a listening ear and support to any festival goers who may need it from our wellbeing vehicle. You’ll notice our mascot “Smudge” in this photo, which was made for us by the talented Crafty Knitters Senior Citizens Club Oswestry. He will be touring the county on our new well-being vehicle when it arrives. Stay tuned for where he will visit next!

The sun shone, and we took it ‘Back to the 80s’ in style! Thanks to everyone who came out and lit up the park with their dance moves – it was so much fun! Your smiles helped highlight the message that moving is so good for our mental well-being, and dancing together as a community is even better. A huge thank you to everyone who has generously donated to Shropshire Mental Health Support Charity, helping us raise nearly £500 through this event! If you’d still like to support this wonderful local charity, you can donate using the link below. A massive shout-out to the volunteers and members of staff from Shropshire who ran the event, and of course, the awesome DJ Dan Anderton for spinning the hits that got us moving. Thanks also to the Mayor of Shrewsbury for attending and to our fantastic photographer Alex Latham for capturing the energy of the day. It truly was a team effort, and we couldn’t have done it without you all!
