10:30 AM - 12:30 PMMental Health Awareness Shabbat falls annually on Shabbat “Bo”, which this year is on 22nd-23rd January. During this week we put extra focus on mental health and wellbeing and to raise awareness of mental illness - something that is even more important this year!
This will be reflected in the service, with prayers and with Rabbi Thomas being joined by a guest speaker. We are excited to welcome children's author Esther Marshall to speak on her new book 'It's Okay not to be Okay' and the importance of the next generation talking about Mental Health. This will be followed by Q&As.
