Emma a Teacher from
Hednesford Valley High School with the beautiful Mental Health Wellbeing Game made by Cannock Chase Shed
The Friends of Hednesford Park
Our wonderful friends atCannock Chase Shedmade us this stunning Mental Health Wellbeing Game for#WorldMentalHealthDay2023. Pictured is Nita and Ray, Jean (who is camera shy) they were the inspirational team that turned Cannock Chase Mental Health Hub project in to a masterpiece game for events. The elephant represents the 'Mental Health / elephant in the room. The 5 pink elephants represent the 5 areas of wellbeing actions you should put in place for your own wellbeing to help keep your brain supported, to prepare for times where stress and unexpected challenges in your life can cause you to not be able to cope with simple tasks. We are blessed with fabulous groups throughout Cannock Chase like Cannock Chase Shed, where you can support all 5 actions to protect your wellbeing: 1.CONNECT (with people who support you and love you as you are ) 2. BE ACTIVE (get you physically moving in activities that are suitable for your own mobility limitations) 3. IN THE MOMENT / Mindfullness (activities that suit your interest where you are absorbed in what you are doing and not mithering about anything else) 4. LEARN (give you opportunities to always learn something new and inspire you to be creative or try new things 5. GIVE (volunteer / be a part of your community / we all have experience, knowledge, time to support those who dont have the time or who are more vulnerable than ourselves, what ever our mobility or capability, no action is too small) The idea of the game is that you throw a bean bag / ball at the elephant, and depending on which one you knock down, you have to say what you will do for each action.
