You matter...we careKindness and everyday positive relationships can affect change and support the wellbeing of individuals and communities.
Breathing Space is a free and confidential phone service for people in Scotland feeling low, stressed or anxious. One of the key features of Breathing Space is our compassionate response to callers, many of whom are in distress or going through a difficult time in their lives.
Our theme for 2020 is, ’You Matter, We Care’; highlighting the caring nature of being human, and the support Breathing Space, other organisations and friends/family can offer, by noticing signs of distress and taking action.
This year our focus is on the Borders area of Scotland. A special thanks to all of those involved in helping us develop our theme.
Kindness in communitiesAn important element of this year’s campaign is the Breathing Space Bench Project, where we are working in partnership with local organisations and community champions, to create welcoming community spaces and informal opportunities for connecting with others.
By developing a network of benches, and thus a network of community connectors, Breathing Space hope to help further develop community values such as trust in our neighbours, kindness to self, and noticing and connecting with others.
Let’s have ‘What matters to you?’ conversations and create other welcoming spaces in our communities to spread a little kindness and show we care.
