We are preparing for the second workshop facilitated by dr. Silvia Gerea as part of our project Healthy Harrow!
We are looking for new volunteers who would like to make a change in their life and those close to them. Dr. Silvia Gerea is a skilled psychologist and gifted public speaker and this will be a new opportunity to attend her presentation for becoming a Mental Health and Wellbeing Champion. At the end of the course you will have the skills and knowledge to be able to initiate a conversation around mental health. You will also know where and how someone can be referred to receive further help.
The workshop will take place 21 October between 12pm-4pm and is open to Romanian speakers living in Harrow.
Why not give us a call and book your place? For more details and information office@rcct.uk or 07311488110.
Avem bucuria de a anunța că facem parte din organizațiile a căror proiect a fost finanțat de către Harrow Giving Grants. Proiectul nostru se concentrează pe îmbunătățirea sănătății mintale a membrilor comunității românești din Harrow.
Pentru a putea atinge acest scop, vom recruta voluntari care or deveni Campioni/ Champions ai sănătății mintale! Acești voluntari vor primi un curs intensiv de prim ajutor al sănătății mintale predat de către dr. Silvia Gerea. Silvia Gerea (AFBPsS, BA Hons, MSc, PhD, MBACP, MBABCP, Senior Associate MRSM, Reg.Scientist) este un psiholog român acreditat în UK cu o experiență extinsă. Acestea este al doilea proiect în care lucrăm împreună cu Dr. Gerea în sprijinul comunității.
Vor fi două sesiuni una organizată pe 15 iulie și a doua pe 24 octombrie la care vor fi formate două grupuri separate de Campioni.
După training, scopul Campionilor este să meargă în comunitate și să împărtășească din informațiile primite și să elimine stigma atunci când vorbim despre sănătatea mintală.
Aceste sesiuni sunt organizate gratis și sunt deschise vorbitorilor de limba română care locuiesc în Harrow. Vă rugăm să ne scrieți la office@rcct.uk dacă doriți să participați.

Working with our community these past years it has become apparent the need for targeted workshops covering mental health and wellbeing. Our first foray was the walk and talk groups that still take place every Thursday morning. Thanks to the Health and Wellbeing grant from Harrow Giving we are now able to offer a series of workshop for the Romanian community facilitated by Dr. Silvia Gerea. The workshops will happen monthly, every third Saturday between 1pm-2pm. Besides the presentation they will also include an Q&A at the end. The first session will touch upon the importance of mental health and will take place on 24 September at Flash Musical Theatre, Methuen Road, Edgware, HA8 6EZ.
To allow parents to attend the workshops we will also have drama classes for children run by Dra.ma. We look forward to welcoming our community members and seeing the impact these workshops will have on their lives.
In aceasta toamna lansam primele alteliere dedicate comunitatii romane pe teme de sanatate mintala. Aceste ateliere vin in completarea sesiunilor “walk & talk” care au loc in fiecare zi de joi dimineata.

Atelierele vor avea loc lunar, in a treia saptamana din luna, intre orele 1pm-2pm. Prima dintre aceste sesiuni va avea loc sambata, 24 septembrie la Flash Musical Theatre, Methuen Road, Edgware, HA8 6EZ si va avea ca tema centrala importanta sanatatii mintale.
Pentru copii care vin impreuna cu parintii vom avea ateliere de actorie organizate de Asociatia Dra.ma.
