🌿 A day out at RHS Wisley

A few photos from our visit to RHS Garden Wisley for the Plot to Plate event!

Eight of our community garden clients joined us, and we all had a wonderful day exploring the gardens 🎃

We attended an inspiring talk at the Hilltop Learning Centre, wandered through the World Food Garden, admired the Glasshouse and Rose Garden, and enjoyed free time to explore the rest of the beautiful grounds.

Everyone loved being surrounded by nature, connecting with fellow garden enthusiasts, and finding peace in such a lovely environment.

To celebrate this year’s Trustees’ Week, we are shining a light on the people who help guide and strengthen Catalyst Support behind the scenes 💫

Trustees are volunteers who give their time, experience, and insight to ensure we stay true to our mission, make good use of our resources, and continue to make a positive impact across our communities.

Meet our trustee, Charlotte Miller, who shares why she was inspired to join Catalyst Support and how her background in the NHS and wellbeing helps guide our work.

It’s Trustees' Week! 🌟💫

We are celebrating our incredible team of 8 dedicated trustees, who guide and strengthen Catalyst Support through their time, experience, and passion for our mission.

Our trustees are volunteers, who bring together a wealth of skills, from charity sector governance and finance to IT and communications. Through challenging times and changes in external environment, they ensure that we make sound decisions, stay accountable, and continue to deliver meaningful support across our communities.

We would like to say a huge thank you to each of our trustees for the expertise, leadership, and care they bring to Catalyst Support.

We recently marked World Mental Health Day , hugging hounds and starting conversations.

Our message is simple but powerful: WE ARE HERE FOR YOU.

It was fantastic to chat with so many students about the range of wellbeing services available across Surrey, because no one should face life’s challenges alone.

What is OCD? 🤔

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition where people experience intrusive, distressing thoughts or urges (obsessions) and feel driven to perform repetitive actions or mental rituals (compulsions) to reduce the anxiety those thoughts cause.

The behaviour often temporarily reduces distress but reinforces the cycle, and over time can seriously limit daily life.

People with OCD may:

- Have persistent intrusive thoughts
- Carry out repetitive behaviours
- Spend a lot of time on the thoughts or rituals, interfering with day-to-day tasks
- Recognise the thoughts/behaviours as excessive or unwanted but feel powerless to stop

I have OCD, what can I do to support myself?

- Learn about OCD
- Challenge the OCD cycle
- Practice mindfulness and acceptance
- Keep a balanced routine
- Join a support community
- Reach out for help

👉 Find out more about OCD in our latest blog here: https://catalystsupport.org.uk/2025/10/15/ocd-awareness-week/
