Miss World Trinidad & Tobago creates The Invisible Scars 5k wellness run to promote the connection between physical health and mental health

The Invisible Scars project collaborated with BAFA sports to facilitate the 5k wellness run. This was another fun initiative to promote the interconnection between physical health and mental health. Physical activities, such as exercise and fitness, have been proven to positively impact our mental health and overall wellbeing. I came up with the slogan, “run one lap for yourself and the other for someone who you may or may not know is struggling with their mental health.” This was to symbolize that we are all in this together. It was a fun day for children and adults to get up, move our bodies while also having the opportunity to discuss the importance of mental health as a community and increase mental health awareness.
