News and events

A pioneering music project to help people with dementia is being promoted by NSFT, which helped support its development.

The importance of connecting with local communities was highlighted by a mental health governor after attending a music event in Wroxham on Sunday.

This week, my blog broadly focuses on the importance of networking, sharing ideas and raising awareness of what we are doing, why we are doing these things and the impact we need to see as a result us working differently with our service users, families, carers and our partners across Norfolk and Suffolk.

This year’s Mental Health Awareness Week is encouraging everyone to move to improve how they feel, and Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust (NSFT) has events organised to encourage people to join in.

As Mental Health Awareness Week approaches (13-19 May), Kerri Madders, chair of the Black Dog Music Project and a former service user of Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust (NSFT) talks about a special event the group is hosting to mark the week, and her own mental health struggles.
