Our members have given a powerful and passionate account of how counselling changes lives in a series of short videos to mark Time to Talk Day.
The annual campaign, run by Time to Change, aims to encourage people to be more open about their mental health.
One of our trustees Sekinat Adima, as well as members Natasha Clewley, Alison Hotchkiss, Lina Mookerjee, and Vasia Toxavidi, all recorded the videos of themselves speaking about the value of counselling and the difference it can make in people鈥檚 lives.
Sekinat said: 鈥淔riends and family are good with listening and helping, but there comes a time when they鈥檙e not always available or they鈥檙e not always able to help. That鈥檚 where counselling comes in. The ability to be able to talk to someone who鈥檚 professionally trained, who can listen, who鈥檚 impartial and who does that in a non-judgemental way.鈥�
