CERT is organising several fundraising events for Turning Point to build a community garden outside their Crisis Point in New Cross, Manchester.
Turning Point is a charity that has supported individuals with mental health, learning disability, and substance use challenges for over 60 years. Turning Point believes that everyone has the potential to grow, learn, and make choices.
Turning Point embraces change and delivers better outcomes by encouraging ideas to improve wellbeing, build resilience in recovery, and develop links with the local community and a road back into employment.
At their Crisis Point service in Manchester, they promote recovery through 24-hour emotional support and by offering intensive 1-to-1 sessions in which people they support can learn how to build resilience and coping skills.
Having been in Manchester's community for over 25 years, Turning Point's mission has been to get alongside those who find themselves in crisis. They aim to deliver person-centred mental health support with empathy, compassion, and respect. Turning Point's goal is to empower individuals on their journey to recovery and build a brighter future.
To support this initiative, CERT has organised a series of fundraising events, including:
- Threads Art Exhibition: Each piece in this collection tells a unique story of identity, space, and the emotions that tie us to both.
- A Spoken Word with Live Music Backtrack: A powerful performance blending poetry and music to evoke emotions and raise awareness.
- Karaoke Night: A fun and interactive evening where participants can sing their hearts out while supporting a great cause.
- Wellbeing Networking Event: An inclusive event featuring a run club and wellbeing talk, fostering community connections and promoting mental health awareness.
- Music Panel Discussion and Intersection with Mental Health and Community: A thought-provoking discussion featuring industry experts exploring the relationship between music, mental health, and community building.
- Unbinding – A Photography Fashion Exhibition: A visually striking exhibition showcasing photography and fashion to express vulnerability to the idea of the image; ripping the seams and revealing the raw edges often invisible to the viewer.
Through these events, CERT aims to not only raise the necessary funds but also to bring the community together in support of Turning Point's essential work.
