KINCARDINE AND MEARNS WELFARE & WELLBEING NETWORK August 2021
We might be thinking about ‘getting back to normal’ – after the holidays, young people going back to school.
For some of us, it’s all about change – to new institutions and courses of study or even ‘the new normal’ following COVID.
Here are some tips, diversions and resources to help you through – and find some enjoyment and relaxation along the way.

#MindYerMind
Do you have a few minutes to answer ten simple questions about mental wellbeing, and how you look after yours?
Aberdeenshire Community Planning Partnership is launching a campaign to ensure people know the benefits of looking after their mental wellbeing, whilst also sharing hints, tips and advice on how to do this.
Your survey answers are important to us because if we are running a campaign for people in the North East, we want it to be based on thoughts and experiences of people from the North East.
The survey is completely confidential and is available on this link:

March 2021
Green Shoots
Our countryside and gardens are wakening up from their Winter sleep and starting to show off their beauty. The longer nights and the lockdown restrictions were a real challenge for many but seeing lighter mornings and feeling some warmth in the sun is a sign that our gardens, parks, countryside in general are about to burst into life. It is well known that getting outside into nature can really help boost our mood and, taking cognisance of covid restrictions, we have so many great places in Kincardine and Mearns to visit. Getting out into the garden and ‘pottering’ or just sitting and enjoying nature’s sounds can really help our mental health. So, in this bulletin we look at how we can get the best from our countryside and learn new things along the way, gardening tips and general wellbeing news to help us enjoy the ‘green shoots’ of recovery.
Click on the link below to find out all the great things on offer from services and our partners in K & M helping to keep us well.
