Mental Health + Well-Being - September 1st to 30th đ
Did you know 1 in 4 New Zealand adults will suffer from a mental disorder or distress at some point in their lives? When they do, letâs make sure they donât have to go it alone. To create safer, more caring communities we need to not only look after ourselves but those around us as well.
For the month of September, we want to come together to share ways to boost mental health and well-being. For example, you could host an online catch up or quiz, call a neighbour who lives alone, challenge your family and friends to try a new hobby or move your body more to improve your own well-being. If you or someone you know is going through a rough patch, donât forget you can call or text 1737 anytime for free support from a trained counsellor.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how youâre looking out for your well-being and helping others with theirs this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to: info@neighbourhoodsupport.co.nz
Collaborative Tap Dance Show
New Zealandâs first home-grown professional Tap Dance show, Tap Fusion, will be performing at Aucklandâs TAPAC Theatre this weekend. The show is a collaboration of New Zealandâs top Tap dancers performing alongside artists of Street Dance, Contemporary Dance and Swing Dance.
Tap Fusion is the work of former New Zealand Tap Champion Brandon Carter-Chan and is designed to expose the diversity of New Zealand artists through Tap Dance by inspiring, uplifting, and promoting the idea of creative collaboration, encouraging people to work with artists outside their social circle, and to increase opportunity and strengthen the arts community as a whole.
Tap Fusion is on at TAPAC Theatre, Motions Road Western Springs, 14th & 15th December. Buy tickets at: www.tapac.org.nz...
