Cheadle Mosque partner with International NGO Islamic Relief to launch an awareness campaign
around Mental Health

#DontSufferinSilence

“DontSufferinSilence” is aimed to share the difficulties of the 1 in 4 people in the UK who will suffer from a mental health problem each year. Anyone can be affected by depression – it knows no boundaries.

Islamic Relief working in partnership with Cheadle Mosque have launched their “Don’t Suffer in Silence” campaign aimed to highlight mental health conditions, in particular depression and the need for us to be supportive of each other in tackling mental illness. Although there has been a lot of work in highlighting these conditions – a lot more still needs to be done, there is an ongoing stigma especially in men talking about it and those from an ethnic minority background.

“We hope this campaign will highlight that mental health illnesses are common and we need to be open and talking about them. Recognising and treating them effectively can save a life - we can no longer ignore them or skirt around them. We need to tackle them head on and tackle them together. Mental health problems affect people from all backgrounds and cultures and this project is part of Islamic Relief’s focus on helping those in need, whether they be those suffering from poverty worldwide or those struggling with low mood – they all deserve our support”, said Ateeq Salik, Islamic Relief’s North Regional Manager.

The campaign by Cheadle Mosque and Islamic Relief will be using social media to highlight these issues as well as banners and support cards to support those who are feeling low and giving advice to those who are in contact with friends and family with depression.

“We need to challenge the stigma and the silence around mental illness and we need to be working together to help those affected.
To raise awareness – our volunteers at Cheadle Mosque will be displaying banners highlighting depression, handing out information cards on tackling mental health and will be active on social media talking about depression. Even the children are talking about mental health through assemblies at the Weekend and Weekday Schools” said Dr Usman Choudry, a trustee at Cheadle Mosque.

There are many treatments – including medication and therapies. Faith for us is also very important in tackling depression and reconnecting to one’s faith is undoubtedly an effective therapy too. Without talking about it and recognising the symptoms of depression, many won’t get the treatment they need.

Please do share the message and this important campaign.

#DontSufferinSilence runs from 18th Feb to 23rd February at Cheadle Mosque

If you do require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

#DontSufferinSilence

Cheadle Mosque and Islamic Relief have launched a campaign highlighting mental illness specifically depression.

We recognise that mental illness is still poorly understood and isn't often discussed particularly within ethnic minorities and amongst men. We want people to talk about their mental health, to talk about depression and for those friends, family and loved ones to understand what it's like for that individual and how they can help.

We hope to release a series of posts this week on these issues. We will also be releasing a number of banners and business cards that we hope can start conversations around mental health...if there is one thing we want to achieve it's about talking and listening. ... See MoreSee Less

Approximately 1 in 4 people in the UK will experience a mental health problem each year.

In England, 1 in 6 people report experiencing a common mental health problem (such as anxiety and depression) in any given week.

It also appears that how people cope with mental health problems is getting worse as the number of people who self-harm or have suicidal thoughts is increasing.

Cheadle Mosque in partnership with Islamic Relief will therefore be focusing on Depression from the week commencing 18/2/2019.

Our campaign "Don't suffer in silence" will highlight depression and how this can affect anyone, from any background or religion. It's not often talked about but because of this people suffer and don't get the help they need. They may be met with little empathy from those around them - simply because they don't understand.

When someone is clinically depressed - they just can't "Snap out of it" - they need time, support from family and friends and therapy.

Therapy may come in many forms - counselling, medication, Cognitive behaviour therapy and through connecting to our faith. Faith gives a very different global view to life and this connection undoubtedly helps.

As part of the campaign, we would like to invite you to our event "Focus on Depression" on 23rd Feb 2019 at 730pm (After Isha) at Cheadle Masjid.

We will be hosting Dr Waquas Waheed - a Reader in Psychiatry and Consultant Psychiatrist. He has also done a lot of work on trans-cultural psychiatry.

Together with Imam Abid Khan, we will be covering :

- What are the symptoms of depression?
- How can we treat it?
- How can we help those who are suffering from depression?
- What's the Islamic perspective on depression

There will be an opportunity for Q&A and of course a hot buffet will be provided and creche is available.

Please do join us. The event is of course open to everyone - of all faiths or none. Families are of course welcome. ... See MoreSee Less

Cheadle Mosque's Own Car Wash will be open for one day only on Sunday 17th February - raising money for the new Masjid.

If you would like your car to be washed while earning reward in supporting the new Masjid bring it along while our team of volunteers will bring out the shine to your motor. And it doesn't stop there - Cheadle Mosque never does things by half - with every wash you will also get your lunch too - choice between delicious BBQ kebabs, burgers or samosa!

Now that's a unique car wash!

And remember - every pound that you donate will go towards redeveloping the new Cheadle Masjid - we don't think there is any better excuse to get your car cleaned!

In fact why not treat you wife/husband or even Chacha and get their cars cleaned too. And it doesn't even matter if the car is clean - we'll clean it again - 😉

Assalaamulaikum

We just wanted to say Jazakum Allahu Khairan to all of you that regularly donate towards the Cheadle Mosque Food Bank. This is one of those great grass roots projects that sees everyday people like me and you making a difference to those individuals on our very doorstep whom have hit hard times.

There are a million and one reasons why someone has hit hard times, a chronic illness, disability, family break up, social problems - or a combination of all these issues.

We need to thank God - that we have been saved from some of these difficulties - but let us help those in need - it could have been us. We are fortunate only by the grace of God.

Our Food Bank supplies are running low this month - so we would be most grateful on this blessed day of Jummah if we could make the intention to drop off some much needed supplies for those in need.

Cereals, pasta, pasta sauces, tinned vegetables and fruit, rice, flour, sugar, tinned tuna, soups etc are all much appreciated

“Protect yourself from hell-fire even by giving a piece of date as charity.” (Bukari)

Jazakum Allahu Khairan
