Dear Colleague,
Liverpool Mental Health Awareness (LMHA) is offering funding to all groups and organisations working with children, young people and adults, to promote the message that mental health is about well-being, and so concerns us all. A positive understanding of mental health is about the way we think and feel, solve problems, relate to other people, and have fun. LMHA offers grants of up to £1,000 for projects which reflect a positive understanding of mental health and which challenge the stigma surrounding mental distress. There are two funding streams: 1 for projects designed to promote mental well-being among children and young people up to age 18. 2 for projects whose primary aim is to raise positive mental health awareness with adults. Applications are particularly welcome from nurseries, schools, youth clubs, community centres, hospitals, black and minority ethnic groups, and any project which wants to address mental health and its promotion. These organisations are best placed to develop creative ideas for promoting mental health in the communities they represent. The next funding deadline is 2pm, Friday 24 February 2006. For an application pack, visit the LMHA website: http://www.livementalhealth.org.uk/grants.htm email: [email protected], or call (0151) 706 0012. For inspiration, see our Funding Hall of Fame, which lists the 95 projects that LMHA has funded since 1998: http://www.livementalhealth.org.uk/funded.htm Will your project be there in 2006? |
