Free online training sessions, delivered by Time to Change BAME Champions

Time to Change Leicester are running a series of online events, focusing on what mental health stigma and discrimination looks like in BAME communities in the city. These sessions are free to attend.

This project is aimed at likeminded individuals who are interested and inspired to learn more about what they can do to monitor and help their natural environment.

We are facilitating a joint workshop on Tuesday 9th June at 11am-12noon to discuss this project in more detail and I would like to invite you to attend.
