Well-being volunteer, Olivia Cheale and her mum dropping the care packages they put together for some of our most vulnerable service users.

They dropped the boxes to support workers drive, with socially distanced and done safely. I understand that these were well received.


Olivia had some of the money given to her from Dartford Deeds but they topped up the boxes themselves. 

Covid19 Stress and Health Study

NEW Covid19 Stress and Health Study – Closing soon!

Mind is supporting a research study examining how the Covid-19 pandemic is affecting the mental and physical health of people in the UK. 

Taking part is quick and easy. It involves a short online survey (takes 10 minutes) and a couple of minutes to collect a small sample of hair from the back of your head. They use this to measure the stress hormone cortisol.  

You are asked to do this now (or as soon as possible) and 12 weeks later.

This research will assess how stressed you feel but also how this stress is affecting you physically too. Full details on how to participate and collect your hair samples are on their website:

The first wave of the study ends soon (last day to participate is 30th April), so do log on soon if you wish to take part.
