Please contact us if some of your employees are struggling with mental stress that is impacting on their work and personal life.
We can work with individuals in a private and confidential setting to help them bridge difficult times.
Get Involved
In the UK every 90 minutes someone takes their own life as they feel stuck in emotional pain and believe that there are no solutions to their problems.
In Coventry the number of suicides nearly tripled in 2017 and Warwickshire has one of the highest rates of suicide in the whole country.
You can help us reach out to people who feel a low point in their lives and who are struggling to get help.
There are lots of different ways you can support Arty-Folks as an individual, with your friends as part of a team or with your work colleagues.

‘Unseen Stories’ is a collection of beautifully illustrated stories to recovery of nine remarkable young adults aged 18 to 30 years old who attended Arty-Folks during 2017.
Available on Amazon.
When you read ‘Unseen Stories’ you can literally ‘see’ what young people mean through the rawness and turmoil expressed in their artwork.
These personal accounts were written during 1:1 mentoring sessions at Arty-Folks.
