Went to work, went swimming, went to Tesco.

Also went to the launch of the Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival. Do check it out!

The Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival aims to transform social attitudes towards mental health. Now in its third year the festival has grown to become one of Scotland's most significant cultural events.

Taking over venues across the country throughout October, the multi-arts festival aims to promote positive mental health in the context of equality and social justice, explore the relationship between the mind and creativity and create a dialogue with the public, the media and the arts about what mental health means to us all.

Festival events needn't be about specific mental health problems, but may address issues of mental health in society at large (poverty/human rights/social justice, young people/education, unemployment, family dysfunction, alcohol/addiction, homelessness, post traumatic stress etc).

"We intend to achieve social change by engaging the media, the public, and the arts community in a dialogue about mental health issues"
