Would you like to be a Self Care Week corporate sponsor?
Excellent corporate sponsorship opportunities are available. If you would like to collaborate in promoting Self Care Week or other health related awareness events do get in touch via email selfcare@selfcareforum.org. We would love to hear from you. More details, including our sponsorship menus, are available here.
We hope you find our free resources useful. To continue with our work of offering organisation support to implement self care at the local level, we are fundraising. Please help if you can. A suggested donation of £100 will go a long way to helping us continue to further the reach of self care. For more details go to our “ways to help” page.
Self Care Week is the UK-wide annual awareness week that focuses on embedding support for self care across communities, families and generations.
The theme is yet to be agreed although organisations are encouraged to use Self Care Week as a hook to help people practise self care for a healthier, happier life.
We hope you will get involved on social media as part of your Self Care Week activities. And, if you need some help, we will have some template posts, including images, available for use during Self Care Week.
These will be uploaded nearer the time so keep watching this space, or get in touch via selfcare@selfcareforum.org if you would like to receive these as soon as they are available.
And, if you want a share or retweet then don’t forget to include @SelfCareForum in your texts. Please also use #SelfCareWeek and #SelfCareForLife.
Need some inspirational ideas for Self Care Week activities?

Pop-up Banners (with date and theme)
If you are holding events you might like to invest in a pop-up banner to help grab people’s attention. Banners are usually quite inexpensive, but effective in helping to promote your Self Care Week events and activities. Here are two types of artwork, one for use as a horizontal banner and the other as a pop-up (vertical).
Pop-up Banners (without date)
We understand that sometimes you want to create Self Care Week banners for events that can be used each year and so we have produced artwork for Self Care Week / Self Care for Life without dates:
Ideally, you want to reach as many people as possible with your Self Care Week messages and it can be helpful to approach your local media (press and broadcast) with news about your activities. You might like to do this by sending a press release including a quote from a local pharmacist, nurse, GP, councillor, mayor, MP or another personality in the local area. If you would like a quote from our Self Care Forum chair, or president, do get in touch.
Below are links to external resources that you might find helpful as part of your Self Care Week activities or outside Self Care Week.
