Welcome to Poles Apart
We are a Polish group living/working in Stockport supporting mental health/wellbeing/disability/ using holistic person centred approach.
We are all vulnerable to mental and emotional distress. At least 1 in 4 people from all walks of life will experience mental health difficulties at any one time. The more we learn about good health the more we understand that health is about preventative strategies as much as a cure, in order to protect mental health and wellbeing.
The World Health Organisation defines health promotion as ‘the process of enabling individuals to increase control over and to improve their health’.
There are lots of things that you can do to look after your mental health. Studies show that a positive outlook on life, a balanced diet, and exercise all help to improve mental health and wellbeing.
Poles Apart endeavors to inform and empower individuals to identify their own health needs and the resources to deal with them in order to be more resilient to stress and illness.
