When?: Saturday 31st March 2012
Where?: Time to Change Village, Riverside walkway at London’s South Bank
- The Time to Change Village is a pop-up space where people can learn about mental health in a fun and interactive way. The Village has all the things you might expect to find in villages and towns across the world: a health centre, library, café, post office, cinema and a news agent. But there’s a twist –each of these areas will provide a unique opportunity to get people talking.- By chatting to volunteers at the Time to Change Village, the public can find out more about what it’s really like to live with a mental health problem. This helps to challenge the stereotypes which often lead to discrimination.Volunteer places are available on a first come first served basis with a deadline to respond by:
Monday 19th March– Find out more about how you can get involved on the Time to Change website – www.time-to-change.org.uk/londonvillage
