A NEW project has been set-up to boost the wellbeing of young men and boys in the district. The launch of the initiative comes following a survey by Keighley-based Healthwatch Bradford & District which found that many people were experiencing loneliness, the death of loved ones, suicidal thoughts or anxiety. It also identified a rise in the need for mental support across all age groups. When comments were analysed, 21 per cent of them specifically referred to Covid-19 as the main topic. Now Brave Minds is underway. The venture is being spearheaded by the Millan Centre in Manningham, which since the start of the pandemic has created ‘safe spaces’ for people of all ages and backgrounds to talk about mental health and access help.
