Silicon Central Mall, Dubai's premier shopping and lifestyle destination, is proud to announce the launch of a comprehensive mental health awareness campaign as part of its corporate social responsibility initiatives. This ground-breaking campaign aims to promote mental wellbeing, reduce the stigma associated with mental illness and support the community environment.
Silicon Mall is the first mall in the UAE to launch this initiative. By promoting mental well-being, the mall aims to improve the morale and productivity of individuals while creating a positive impact on the community. Educating the public about mental health issues reduces stigma, encourages open conversation, and fosters a supportive environment where individuals feel comfortable seeking help.
Shirazul Khan, manager of Silicon Central Mall, said: “Fostering mental awareness is essential to a person's well-being, which in turn increases their morale and productivity. This campaign provides the necessary resources, support and education to lead to healthier communities. We are committed to making a lasting impact through our CSR initiatives.”
Ongoing activities and collaborations
As part of the campaign, Silicon Central Mall has partnered with renowned mental health advocates, including Fakeeh University Hospital and Life Medical Center. These partnerships bring expert guidance and support to campaign activities such as educational workshops and seminars: providing valuable information and insights on various mental health topics; awareness campaigns: spreading awareness of mental health issues through various channels; support groups and counselling: offering support and counseling sessions for those who need it; and fitness and wellness programs: promoting overall well-being through fitness and wellness activities.
This month, Silicon Central Mall is excited to present Open Mind, a psychiatry, counseling and neuroscience center located in the mall.
This new addition ensures that customers have easy access to professional mental health services in a convenient and affordable location.
“We are proud to be the first mall to launch this type of CSR initiative. Our goal is to create a supportive community that prioritizes mental health and well-being,” added Khan.
