The Ajuda Foundation - providing free physical & mental health workshops, activities and training in

The Ajuda Foundation runs The Purple Sunflower Project and the Restart a Heart Project, which are projects providing free resources, activities and training to community groups, education establishments, and individuals throughout Wales.
Working in partnership with local organisations, The Ajuda Foundation uses all the resources at its disposal to help communities, schools, and individuals tackle the challenges surrounding physical and mental health & wellbeing. The projects offer opportunities for children and adults to participate in training and activities which support their physical and mental wellbeing.

Why the community needs us
We feel that introducing physical & mental health and wellbeing workshops, including mindfulness & wellbeing activities into communities and schools throughout Wales will help to give those communities better mental health, a greater sense of purpose, community focus, and life-saving skills.

Our impact on the community
So far, over 700 adults and children have benefited from our free sessions. By taking part in the Purple Sunflower Project, many people have gained nationally recognised qualifications, joined the conversation surrounding mental health challenges and helped to change their community's mindset regarding mental health and wellbeing. We have also been able to direct people to various other mental health and wellbeing provision in their area, and boosted resilience so that people feel more confident in seeking the support they need. The Restart a Heart Project has provided many children with CPR & Defibrillator training - skills on which they can build throughout their lives.

Volunteers needed

We need help with all aspects of the foundation's work, particularly in admin, marketing, fundraising, and event support.
