Mental Health Month

Mental Health Month - January 2022

One of the reasons I love LEGO bricks so much is how something so small can make a massive positive impact on our mental health wellbeing. From the mindful aspect of building to the social aspect of the AFOL Community.

I have been using LEGO bricks in workshops for a few years now, and use every opportunity I can to help raise awareness of mental health issues, as well as reducing the stigma of talking about our own mental health.

So I want to use January 2022 to have a month of LEGO challenges and events, from online events to in person events.

I want as many people to get involved as possible, so if you want to create your own event let me know and I can list them below

It would also be great to get details of non UK mental health charities and organisations, so if you can recommend anyone let me know and I will put all the details on this page

If you have any ideas or suggestions please let me know, or an idea for what to call this month.
