A happy new year and the countdown to 25by2012

Posted on 28th December, 2011

The New Year is just around the corner, which means that '25by2012' - our boldest campaign to date - is drawing to a close. The campaign has been a great success thus far, reaching dozens of Student Unions and university campuses all over the UK, and we have been overwhelmed by the interest and reception. However, we're not done yet...

We've had more interest during the festive period, and with 19 groups already signed up we're set to unveil the final 6 before the turn of the year. For each of the 25, setting up a group promoting mental health and wellbeing at their university is a truly commendable achievement, and we're proud of all of the staff, students and elected officers that have worked to make this happen. And if you still want to hop on board the 25by2012 bus then get in touch - it's not too late!

We also wish to thank our amazing campaign supporters and partners - Action for Happiness, Students against Depression, the Charlie Waller Memorial Trust, the Matthew Elvidge Trust, Time to Change, Leeds Metropolotian University and Nightline. And also thanks to the students and universities who have gotten involved to make it a success, and finally a big thank you to the MWUK team behind the campaign.

So keep an eye out on the website, as well as our Twitter feed and Facebook page for further updates over the next week as we build up the 25.

We wish you all the best for 2012, and look forward to making it the best year yet for campus wellbeing. Mental Wealth UK will be bringing in the new year in style, and we hope that you will be too.
