As we enter the summer months we would have been looking forward to the The Salomon Serpent Trail events.
Unfortunately we now need to wait until 2021 to see your running and fundraising achievements.
Until then there are lots of ways to support Havant and East Hants Mind (such as virtual fundraising), we would also encourage you to follow The Salomon Serpent Trail to keep updated on the plans for an exciting 2021.
Please consider subscribing to our supporters eNewsletter (via www.easthantsmind.org) to keep up to date our our work and supporters efforts.🙁
As of today the 2020 Salomon Serpent Trail is cancelled.

With so much uncertainty it seems the only way to play it and the better option so we all know what is going on.
Participants emails went out at lunchtime.
Fear not, 2021 is going to blow your socks off!!! 😎

As lockdown gradually lifts it's important to remember the conversations we have started over the last 3 months.
Today's #WorldWellbeingWeek post is also a #FridayFlashback to 20th May, when we heard John Marquis talking about his home life and listening to/ supporting others.
We were delighted to meet John back in February when we visited Fratton Park as part of our fundraising day with the support of Mind and the English Football League.
It's great to see our local sports leaders and role models discussing and supporting mental health conversations.
Best of luck to John and the Portsmouth Football Club Team, who take on Oxford United in the playoffs in 7 days time ⚽️
