For this Hub Event, Tim Adwick from Mindscapes will be joining us to share their experiences of combining community and peer support, creativity, photography and lived-experience.

 Mindscapes is a photography and peer support group based in Chesterfield which supports the community in managing their mental health. The organisation centres lived experience of mental health, training, creativity and photography in their initiatives which aim to build life skills, community, and confidence among their members.

 During this webinar, Tim Adwick will share a  presentation of their work at Mindscapes, followed by a conversation with Georgie Akehurst from the Discovering Liveability team, about how the project supports liveability. You will then be invited to engage with a creative photo activity, before Tim takes us on a visual journey demonstrating the photography walks that Mindscapes organises. This will be followed by a Q+A.

Bio: Hi my name is Tim Adwick. I have my own lived experience with Mental health and physical health, been through various support and been told I'm too complex in the past. Through my own experiences and the power of creativity, I wanted to set an instant and accessible support group up to support others in the community, this is where Mindscapes was created, instant support built on lived-experience. We use our lived-experiences, training, creativity, photography, community and nature to support individuals in empowering themselves to thrive.
