Forgotten Women: Providing Support for Mental Health and Beyond
Mental health is a silent crisis affecting millions in the UK, and women, in particular, are bearing the brunt of it. With rising cases of anxiety, depression, and trauma, the need for mental health support has never been greater. We are committed to addressing this urgent issue, ensuring no woman suffers in silence. However, we cannot do it without your support.
The Mental Health Crisis in the UK
According to the UK’s Mental Health Foundation, one in five women experience a common mental health problem like anxiety or depression. Women are twice as likely as men to be diagnosed with anxiety disorders, and over 40% of women have reported feeling overwhelmed or unable to cope in recent years.
The pandemic further worsened the situation, with studies showing that women, especially those juggling caregiving roles, faced disproportionate mental health challenges. Issues like low self-esteem, trauma, and menopause-related mental health struggles are often overlooked, leaving many women feeling isolated and unheard.
Forgotten Women: A Lifeline for Those in Need
We provide more than just mental health support—we create safe spaces and offer practical tools for women to overcome life’s challenges. With the generous support of donors, we are proud to offer the following services to alleviate the mental health crisis:
- Workshops to Combat Depression: Covering essential topics such as low self-esteem, anxiety, menopause, and trauma, these sessions are run by a local GP, a Nutrition Expert, and a Clinical Psychologist to ensure women receive holistic support.
- Group Workshops: After the initial sessions, women can attend three-hour group workshops that include practical tools, a support network, and snacks—offering a nurturing environment to rebuild confidence and resilience.
- Private One-on-One Counselling: For those who prefer privacy, we provide access to trained counsellors for individual sessions, ensuring that everyone can seek help in the way they feel most comfortable.
Our goal is simple but powerful: not to let a single woman suffer in silence. Every woman deserves to feel seen, supported, and empowered to take control of her mental health.
Why Mental Health Support Matters
Mental health issues don’t just affect individuals—they ripple through society. Studies have shown that addressing mental health can reduce unemployment, lower crime rates, and improve family dynamics. By tackling this crisis, we create a healthier, more productive society where everyone can thrive.
