Hawk Walk
Volunteer Rebecca entertained Washington Mind staff and service users with a Hawk Walk. An opportunity for those involved to walk in the beautiful grounds of Washington Old Hall and get some real hands on experience. We learned about and handled a beautiful bird of prey 'Mort' the Harris Hawk!
Part of our World Mental Health Day -week long events included visits to local schools to raise awareness around the positive benefits of exercise on our mental health and Rebecca brought along Mort to promote the 'Get Moving' campaign.
"I feel valued and supported and a part of the Washington Mind team. The experience I have gained whist volunteering where has proven to be invaluable in both my professional and personal development."
