Art therapy - Mind 2010 calendar

Posted Wednesday 14 October 2009

Art and other creative activities can help people experiencing mental health problems to communicate feelings not easily put into words.

Their therapeutic effects can be enormous and can lower stress levels, fear and anxiety, and provide a sense of freedom, leading to faster recovery times and reduced need for medication.

Mind's 2010 calendar features exclusive art from members of our local Mind associations. The local Minds provide services across England and Wales for people with experience of mental distress, and many of them run popular art and craft groups.

The calendar is available for only £2.99 from our online shop and from Mind charity shops.

Also available to buy online, or from Mind shops, is our new range of 25 Christmas card designs.
