University Mental Health Day takes place on Thursday 2nd March and this year’s theme is Active Mental Health. The day is about student volunteers, University staff and Student Union officers all working together to promote key messages relating to mental health.
This campaign gives you opportunities to
talk about the relationship between physical and mental health
build social networks through physical activity
inspire others to take steps to become more physically active
This year there will be table tennis tables set up at City Campus (Owen Level 2) and Collegiate Campus (Heart of the Campus). Staff will be on hand to give information about the benefits of physical activity and how you can introduce and sustain regular physical activity in your daily life.
You can get involved!
Make a pledge to get yourself going with this and put it on a pledge board
Pick up a pass for a free session with SHU Active.
Have a go on the smoothie bike at City Campus to make yourself a healthy, refreshing drink
Take steps on 2nd March and throughout the month to become more active and improve your physical and mental health. Everybody is welcome!
