AN EVENT promoting mental wellbeing and offering tips on managing stress and worry will be held in Helensburgh next week.

Organised by Forces Children Scotland, the Your Mind Matters event is open to anyone aged 16 or above, whether in the armed services or a civilian, living in Helensburgh and the surrounding area.

The event is an opportunity to enhance your understanding of anxiety, using the components of the thoughts-feelings-behaviour cycle, and practice some CBT based anxiety-management techniques.

The information available may also help anyone who experiences high levels of worry or stress and who feels they would benefit from some management techniques.

The session, organised with financial help from the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust, takes place at the Drumfork Community Centre on Tuesday, June 13 from 6-7pm.
