Spotlight on mental health support at Northampton Market Square

15 May 2025

Residents are invited to Northampton’s Market Square on Saturday 17 May, from 10am to 2pm, for a special event to mark Mental Health Awareness Week, bringing together a wide range of local charities and organisations.

The event aims to raise awareness of the mental health and wellbeing services available to people of all ages across the area and is part of a series of actions led by the Northampton Town Centre Task Group to support workers, businesses, and the wider community.

Visitors will have the opportunity to meet with teams from organisations such as Action for Happiness, The Lowdown, Samaritans, Healthwatch, Futures Housing, and many more. Kelly's heroes will also be in the market square on Thursday and Friday.

Public Health colleagues will also be promoting upcoming mental health and suicide prevention training sessions specifically aimed at local businesses.
