Self-care week 18-24  November 2024

Self-Care Week an annual national awareness week that focuses on embedding support for self-care across communities, families and generations. This year’s theme set by the Self Care Forum charity is ‘Mind & Body’. The theme supports our Well Newham values, which focuses on taking steps to improve our physical and mental health.

Please ensure you take time out this week to practice self-care.

We would like to know what self-care means to you, how you practice self-care and things that prevent you from practising self-care. Please have your say via this form.

Also, we have developed a short self-care quiz for children aged 11-16 years. They can use the quiz to test how much they know about self-care and they also get a certificate for taking part!

We would appreciate if this could be shared across your networks. The quiz and certificate can be downloaded here, along with the answers: https://www.wellnewham.org.uk/advice/self-care-week
