Your physical health affects your mental health so improving such things as fitness and diet can help your mental well-being – but this doesn’t mean adopting the training regime of a top athlete! Solihull Mind’s Healthy Living services can provide help to improve your physical health including advice on diet and exercise and the opportunity to increase your fitness by taking part in physical activities ranging from gentle walks to playing football. One of the main aims is to encourage/enable people to have more control of their physical health (and consequently, to have better mental health) and to have the self confidence to be able to use mainstream community facilities/spaces for whatever physical activity they choose to do as part of this. As well as improving your health and increasing your social involvement, the individual skills and teamwork you’ll develop will help you elsewhere in your life.

Outdoor activity

Our horticulture project in Knowle provides the opportunity to undertake physical activity at a level that suits you. There is always a range of work available ranging from planting seeds to digging (if you really want to give yourself a workout!) and you can eat the fruit and vegetables you have grown! More details on our horticulture project are here. There are buses from Solihull to Knowle (contact us for details) or if you are driving you can use B93 0PU in your satnav if you have one, There’s also a location map here. The site in Knowle can also be used for individual fitness activities such as jogging or running, and there is a fitness circuit there to suit people of varying fitness levels.
