4-Week Wellbeing Program for Young People from Ethnic Minority Backgrounds

Come to The Third Place by Mind Axis! This 4-week mindfulness and mental wellbeing programme was created by and for young people from ethnic minority backgrounds. Across four sessions, you'll connect with others, build mental health skills, and grow in a supportive community. The programme provides you with in-person group support sessions and free access to a cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and mindfulness course (Headspace). You will experience creating art, walking in the park, storytelling, "quests", and support from facilitators and participants.
