Ewen's Room

Why you should vote for Ewen's Room for the People’s Choice Award

Ewen's Room is a Lochaber-based, grassroots mental health charity with a passion for supporting our rural, local communities, and working to raise awareness and reduce stigma around mental health and suicide. Our focus is on early intervention for children and young people through our Educational Programmes and Counselling; and support for those struggling with isolation, loneliness and bad mental health through our Open Doors and Workshops for WellBeing.

This year at Ewen’s Room has been all about growing stronger in what we do best—Promoting, Educating, and Connecting. We’ve promoted mental wellbeing across Lochaber, and our community has rallied around us—from teachers reaching out to riders trekking miles to raise awareness. Through our WellBeing Champions and Heroes programmes, and creative therapies, we’ve educated children and young people with tools they’ll carry for life. And we’ve connected people who might otherwise feel alone—through Open Doors, we’ve seen friendships form, confidence return, and carers find a moment of rest. It’s been a year of real, meaningful change—and we’re just getting started.
