Mental Health

Volunteer Becky Allen of Wings Over Washington 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 Becky brought along Mort to promote the 'Get Moving' campaign.
