Wellbeing
Keeping well
Mental wellbeing means feeling good about yourself and the world around you. The NHS recommends five steps to help you stay well.
- Connect and develop relationships with people around you. Build strong social connections to help you feel happier, more secure and give you a sense of purpose.
- Be active – find an activity you enjoy and make it part of your life.
- Keep learning and gain new skills.
- Give to others – whether with a small gesture such as a smile or kind word or by volunteering.
- Be mindful – be more aware of the present moment, thoughts and feelings.

Feeling the winter blues?
Members of the Slough Coproduction network recognise from our own lived experiences that winter can be a difficult time for people. We have created a resource which provides details about organisations and places to visit offering help, advice or someone to talk to.
