World Homeless Day
11 October 2023
You might have heard Beth - one of our Women's Specialist Practitioners - on Future Radio's Breakfast Show yesterday morning. This was an interview with presenter Sophie Rice to mark World Homeless Day. It covered why we should recognise World Homeless Day and the importance of raising awareness about homelessness. Beth also spoke about our work as part of ‘Pathways Norwich.' The Pathways consortium is a great way to network with other homeless agencies and work within a multi agency team; working with services, who use the same trauma-informed approach, provides a cohesive support network for the client, to ensure all their needs are met and to reduce duplication and confusion.

“Every year we celebrate World Mental Health Day on 10 October. The theme for 2023, set by the World Foundation of Mental Health, is ‘Mental health is a universal human right’. World Mental Health Day is about raising awareness of mental health and driving positive change for everyone’s mental health. It’s also a chance to talk about mental health, how we need to look after it, and how important it is to get help if you are struggling. Come together with friends, families or colleagues this World Mental Health Day, by holding a Tea & Talk!” Visit : World Mental Health Day 2023 | Mental Health Foundation
