Reverend Andrew Yates, the Diocese of Truro, Social Responsibility Officer is developing a Faith and Mental Health network.
The network develops on from a successful Day on Faith and Mental Health hosted by the Diocese of Truro and Transformation Cornwall held in October 2019.
Mental Health is an increasing issue that we are facing within our communities, and we are looking to form a network for church and faith groups to offer them support in this work. A chance to share ideas and to find out about training opportunities and how we can best support our communities.
The first meeting of the network will be on FEBRUARY 24TH at 2pm
Faith and Mental Health Network:
Wednesday, 24th February at 2.00 pm (Zoom open from 1.45 onwards)
