💚 World Mental Health Day – 10 October 💚

Today is a reminder that looking after our mental health is just as important as looking after our physical health. At thrive, we believe movement, community and connection can all play a role in supporting wellbeing — but we also know that sometimes, it’s about simply reaching out and talking. If you’re struggling, you’re not alone.

Small steps can make a big difference:

🌿 Take time for a walk, stretch or swim
🤝 Connect with friends, family, or someone you trust
💬 Don’t be afraid to ask for help

Do you have any tips for giving your mental health a boost? We want to hear from you - let us know in the comments!

👉 For support, you can visit Mind or speak to your GP if you need extra help. ⚠️ If you are in need of urgent assistance, call 999 and ask for an ambulance.

Not one, not two, but four awards! 🤩

Well done to our leisure services team, Thrive Active Durham Leisure, for their success at last night’s Ukactive Awards.

We were nominated in seven categories, and walked away with the winner’s trophies for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, Transformational Innovation and Marketing Campaign.

We were also named Outsanding Organisation of the Year.

We’re thrilled that we have been recognised on the national stage for our work to ensure communities have opportunities to have healthier, more active lifestyles.

World Mental Health Day

Mental Health is something we all have, and talking about it can make a real difference.
A simple conversation with a friend, colleague, family member or neighbour could help someone feel heard, supported and less alone.
This World Mental Health Day, let’s take time to check in with each other and remind people that support is available.
Find local mental health support at www.durham.gov.uk/mentalhealth
or visit World Mental Health Day 2026 - Mental Health UK for advice on to help make mental health conversations easier by sharing your story, starting a conversation with someone you care about, or simply taking the time to listen.
