Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay. Our #mentalhealth, just like our physical wellbeing, is a universal human right.
Today, we'll share a variety of ways that #physicalactivity, spending with others and immersing yourself in #nature can support positive mental wellbeing.

✨ Well done to Westhill & Elrick Community Council who completed the first of two #IanFindlayPathFund supported projects in June. They upgraded a 480m stretch of the Westhill Orbital Trail that was rough and prone to flooding making the trail usable for #EverydayJourneys 🚶
