Healthy Minds Together, a pilot programme, led by West London NHS Trust, in partnership with Hammersmith & Fulham Council, Hammersmith and Fulham Dementia Action Alliance, and other local organisations launches today to raise awareness about healthy brain ageing and support residents in making lifestyle changes that may reduce the risk of cognitive decline.

Peggy Coles from the H&F Dementia Action Alliance emphasised the importance of proactive engagement: “It is important to talk about healthy brain ageing and empower individuals and communities to learn more about dementia prevention and take meaningful actions that support long-term brain health.”

There are free sessions open to Hammersmith & Fulham residents aged 50 and over, which will encourage conversations around how lifestyle changes can support brain health.

Every third Thursday in October, we celebrate the incredible contributions of Peer Support Workers (PSWs) across mental health services.

To mark the day, PSWs from our Trust came together on 16 October for a reflective ☕️ meet-up, sharing achievements, celebrating progress with service users, and connecting over the power of peer support.

Miriam Emanuela Presta, PSW from Hammersmith & Fulham North MINT, shared: “The work we do isn’t just a one-way intervention. It’s a mutual approach. This meet-up was a beautiful reminder of the strength found in shared experiences and the ripple effect of kindness and support in the mental health recovery journey.”

Peer support workers (PSWs) are mental health professionals who have had their own experience of mental health challenges, and their interventions are based on sharing their experiences to help others. 💙 A heartfelt thank you to all our PSWs for the compassion, insight, and hope you bring to our services every day.
