“Looking after our mental health has never been more important.”

A campaign has been launched by health and care organisations in Rotherham aimed at raising awareness of the support and advice available across the borough.

The campaign focuses on ensuring local residents have the information and self-help tools they need to look after their own mental health, as well as have the knowledge of how to support a friend or family member.
