Hello!

The 10th-16th of May is Mental Health Awareness Week! We at Humans for Humans are proud to put mental wellbeing at the centre of everything we do, and as we continue to live with the uncertainty and restrictions as a result of COVID-19, a gentle reminder to be kind and patient with yourself as best you can. Head to our blog for resources, and to learn more about mental health.
We have some exciting news this week about our wonderful partner Footprint To Freedom. They are a survivor-led organisation working against trafficking, and were awarded an award from Child10 that recognises their excellent work. Find out more about their work through this video. Keep up the inspiring work and well done!
