COLLECTIVE CIC
WELCOME
We focus on building a supportive community through Education, Empowerment, and Physical Activity and are dedicated to creating inclusive spaces and opportunities that promote mental well-being, resilience, and personal growth. Our initiatives include hands-on workshops, collaborations with mental health advisors, support from suicide and bereavement charities, workplace advisory services, and guidance from neurodiversity champions. We aim to make a positive, lasting impact by connecting people with these vital resources.
Our flagship annual intergenerational community event—now in its fourth year—reflects our commitment to fostering understanding, support, and connection. We believe that the factors influencing mental health and well-being are complex and multifaceted. Through our work, we aim to address these challenges together, helping individuals find hope and support when they need it most.

JFEC CIC
We are ecstatic to have registered as a CIC and are excited to be up and running to provide more support throughout the year. We have some fantastic ideas for how to help all communities, but we want our community to say what they need or would like. Please contact us if you would like to be involved in supporting the community or sharing your ideas.​​

Fundraiser
A group of six traveled to Fort William to climb Ben Nevis. All sponsorship money raised was again donated to our event. We continue to receive positive feedback about our annual event, with attendees planning their attendance in 2025. Next year, we are traveling abroad to hike in Bilbao—if you would like to join us, please get in touch. ​

SHINE-A-SPOTLIGHT
On the 21st of July 2024, we hosted our third community event in London. Our speakers were sensational during the fireside chat, bringing complex topics out of the dark. Additional activities included a bouncy castle and face-painting; DJ GSmoove kept us entertained, while Kings House Sports Ground didn't disappoint with their fantastic BBQ. We enjoyed our 360 video booth with memories to last a lifetime. One attendee said they "could not believe how much they enjoyed the raffle and abundance of prizes."
