At our next Fill Your Cup Run/Walk/Talk Collective, we’re honoured to welcome Bring In Change. If you have not heard of them they are a wonderful charity dedicated to connecting seniors with the community through sport. They do truly inspiring work! Join us to learn about their mission and work as advocates of #activeaging and even meet some of their senior athletes 🏃.

This one is a special one to mark #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek 💚 and this year’s theme ‘community’. Bring In Change represent a true community led initiative. We celebrate grassroots organisations delivering participatory forms of care; people see needs not being met in their communities and come together to make change. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑

Join us either for the coffee club talk segment with BIC, or also the run/walk after! ☕️🚶‍♀️🏃‍♂️

This monthly community gathering is open to all, and was designed to support and build awareness around#mentalhealth and #cancer care, and it continues to evolve as our community grows.

Reach out with any questions you might have for Bring In Change or either of our co-hosts!

Date: 18 May 2025 (Sunday)
Time: 9:30am
Venue: @thestation.hk

# Distance: Talk/Walk/Run 0-7km (optional/flex as per your preference)
RSVP from link in bio 🤳

The New Normal is a small UK-based charity that connects adults through their experience of grief and mental health, providing space to discuss these issues through non-judgmental peer group support.

If you are passionate about our cause and have the capacity, skills and experience to support the Charity's mission, we'd love to hear from you!

We are seeking Trustees to serve as Secretary, Treasurer and Chair of our Board.

You will work alongside the rest of our Board, remotely, to collaboratively provide oversight of the charity’s governance, administration and ensure public benefit.

One year ago we were sitting in a park, talking to people about our mission, grief, and the importance of community. We were forming the connections amongst our team and meeting people who would become integral to @tnnamericas.

And now, one year later, we’re having our first in-person Good Grief meeting in Ojai, California alongside @grieveandbreatherituals and @cafebokuojai. Bringing this meeting, our backbone and bread and butter, to the Americas for the very first time. Beautiful things take time, and we’ve worked so hard for this moment.

We can’t wait to share space with you all. The first meeting will take place Wednesday, June 26th at 6pm at Café Boku (987 W Ojai Ave). For inquiries please get in touch with us or by emailing ojaiamber@gmail.com.

The New Normal Charity is committed to providing space for diverse communities. 🤍 #tnncharity #grief #loss #mentalhealth #ojai
