Really enjoyed attending yesterday’s networking event organised by Swale Community and Voluntary Services - a great opportunity to connect with other local charities and community groups doing incredible work across Swale and beyond!

Thank you to Swale CVS for putting this on and giving us the opportunity to find out more about the local community. Looking forward to the next one already! 🩵

On Sunday, we ran our first ever stall! 🩵

As part of it, we asked people to write a short anonymous message on a post-it note - something they’d want to say to someone who’s struggling right now. Folded up and put in a cup.

The responses we received were incredible. Raw, real, and full of heart. In fact, each one was formatted in the exact way they were handwritten - even to the text positioning and smiley faces. Some simple. Some powerful. All from a place of care.

Moments like this remind me why TTC exists - to create spaces for connection, empathy, and understanding. Because sometimes, it’s the smallest words that can make the biggest difference.

From what started as a simple dream me and my mum had when we founded TTC on 11 February 2024 - Conn’s birthday - to running football tournaments, and more recently sports events and walks… it’s now time to take the leap.

This isn’t just a piece of paper… it’s a statement of intent. A promise that what started as a small idea in Conn’s memory is growing into something bigger - a movement dedicated to helping people take control of their lives.

One day, we’ll have a TTC centre where young people can come to find support, purpose, and community. For now - we’re building, step by step. Event by event. Connversation by Connversation. 🦆🩵

Thank you to everyone that’s been on this journey with us. Let’s all keep on Taking The Conn in our lives!

The TTC walk for tomorrow is HERE!

Meet at Gore Court Cricket club (tomorrow, Wednesday 3rd) for 7pm - we’ll then stroll down to the Jenny Wren for a cheeky drink, then loop back to Gore Court Cricket Club!

Please feel free to come along and chat to likeminded people, and get moving and talking for your mental health! Should be around 1:30 hours in total, and you absolutely won’t regret it.

Let me know if you’re coming along - and feel free to join our growing WhatsApp community! (Link in bio)

See you all tomorrow 🩵

The TTC walks are BACK this week with a bang. 😎💥

📍 The Three Mariners at Oare
📆 Wednesday 27 August, 7PM

We’ll be meeting at The Three Mariners (circled) and leaving promptly at 7 for a lovely stroll around the creek - fresh air, good chat, and a real reset for the mind. We’ll then loop back to the pub - feel free to stick around for a pint or a bite to eat if you feel up to it!

These walks aren’t just about moving your legs - they’re about checking in with each other, lifting each other up and reminding ourselves that we’re never alone. 🩵

This week’s extra special - the lovely will be joining us which I’m buzzing for!

If you’re up for it, drop me a message or join the TTC WhatsApp Community (link in bio).

See you lovely people tomorrow! 🩵

We get it - the news has been a LOT lately. If it’s making you feel anxious, sad, or just generally low - just know you are absolutely not alone in those thoughts and feelings.

At Take The Conn, we are committed to helping people take control of their lives; and that starts with compassion.

You don’t have to carry it all. Swipe through for a little support 🩵

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞 🌞

Yesterday, Saturday 21st, marked the Summer solstice for this year - the longest day of the year in terms of daylight.

While this day is widely celebrated, for many, it also brings the quiet reminder that the days will begin to shorten from now - a gentle nod towards the colder, darker months ahead.

Although this is very much a reality, it doesn’t have to be OUR reality...

Yes, the days are shortnening now. But let’s not let that truth take us away from the beauty of now. We can’t control the daylight, but we can choose to be fully present, and savour the beautiful warm summer nights while they’re here!

There’s so much to be grateful for in life, and so little worth worrying about in the grand scheme of things.

𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧’𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝.

𝑾𝒆 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒘𝒐𝒏 𝒂𝒏 𝒂𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅!!🏅🩵

Last week, I had the honour of attending the Mayor of Swale’s Civic Awards ceremony, after being shortlisted for one of the awards.

And guess what…

WE WON! 🩵

And I say “we” because this isn’t just about me. This is a win for ALL of us - everyone that supports , comes to our events, engages with .conncast, and for everyone dealing with their mental health. This award belongs to the whole community, none of this would be possible without you guys.

And of course, a HUGE shoutout to for nominating us for this award in the first place - your selflessness is so rare and I’m forever grateful to have someone as lovely as you in my life. 🥰🩵

As much as being recognised is always nice, there is a lot more work to be done still; we’re only just getting started! Let’s keep breaking the stigma and helping people Take The Conn. ⛵️🩵
