Although Mental Health Awareness Week has ended, it’s important to remember that mental health support is needed all year round.

Our latest blog highlights the impactful work of two social enterprises, The Challenge Academy and BF Adventure that are based in the West Midlands and South West respectively. It’s inspiring to see how they are providing vital support to those struggling with mental health issues through outdoor and challenging supported activities.

We’re proud to have invested in both inspirational organisations to help expand their reach to the people who need it most.
