What we're looking for
How does being part of your community help you thrive? To celebrate this year’s Mental Health Awareness Week theme of “community”, we have opened our image library for submissions, and we’d love to see photos.
We know that being part of a community is vital for our mental health and wellbeing. We thrive when we have strong connections with others and supportive communities around us.
Your community could be at school or work, through your faith, at a club where you enjoy a hobby, as part of a group inspiring action for positive change, an online game, or even through a love of Taylor Swift!
Importantly, a community should make you feel good about yourself, feel safe, and feel empathy towards others.
The images you submit will be freely available for people to use. Images submitted should be:
- Your own images
- High quality, high resolution images
- Show people engaging in activities in their community, in line with the recommendation from our research on the previous page.
Competition
- Our panel will select a shortlist of the best images contributed to the library.
- Members of Our Personal Experience Network will be invited to vote for their favourite "Community" image.
- The winner will receive £200 in high street vouchers.
- Submit your 'Community' images by 21 March 2025 to qualify for entry to the competition.
