💙 Mental Health Awareness Week starts today (11–17 May).

This year’s theme is Take Action - focusing on small steps that can make a real difference to our mental health.

That could mean:
✨ One action for yourself – getting some fresh air or trying a calming technique
👥 One action for someone else – checking in or listening without judgement
🛟 One action for all of us – knowing where to get urgent mental health support in Scotland

If you or someone you care about needs help urgently, support is available 24 hours a day.
