This feed will no longer be updated. It will serve as an archive of all the work that was done by Making Minds.
Help us to mark World Mental Health Day by coming along to a creative writing session with @BigIssueCymru at @littlemangarage tomorrow at 2pm. The session is free to attend and will be run by Chris Paul. There’s even a free cuppa!
Would you like to be involved with some creative writing sessions in Sept/Oct, alongside @BigIssueCymru vendors in Cardiff?
We’ve worked with the magazine to put this project on, with more to come after Christmas.
For more info contact Lotty Talbutt using the following details.
Outstanding @ChaddyTaylor! Looking at mental ill health, based on your experiences, from a completely different perspective. Take a bow. bbc.co.uk/news/av/health-442…

Tonight, we’re sorry to hear about the passing of actress Margot Kidder at the age of 69.
Margot was best known as the character Lois Lane in the original Superman films.
She also spoke openly about her experiences of bipolar disorder.

We’ve decided that this will be our last year in this format. All 2018 commitments will be honoured and the name Making Minds will remain, possibly run as a consultancy. @MarkSmithWales will focus his efforts on @the6699project and the Welsh mental health arts festival. With ❤️

Trying to find out whether any estate or letting agents in Cardiff have sponsored projects or events run by voluntary organisations or charities before. Thanks.
Hi. We’re looking for a small grant to support a project that we’ll be running with @BigIssueCymru. Ideally it’ll be something we can apply for quite soon. Thanks. @WalesCVA @C3SC any ideas?
Just extraordinary. Amazing stuff and so proud of Cerys. teapawt.net/insolecourt/status/959…
