TFF Wellbeing
About the
campaign
Tennis for free, a UK based community sports charity with
over 70 sites in parks nationwide, are launching a new awareness campaign, to
firstly, raise awareness of mental health and secondly to provide information
and resources that can help people make a difference to their state of mind. 1
in 4 people will experience a mental health problem each year in the UK.
Although mental health problems can be difficult to spot, it doesn’t make them
any less significant than a physical health issue. Our page includes
various resources, news and information regarding our campaign so feel free to
look around.
