A free workshop looking at mental health and stigma amongst family, friends and the wider community will be held by Hughes Unit Group Supporter (HUGS).
The talk will be held at the Chapel in the Garden, Bridport, on April 28 from 2pm.
A spokesman for HUGS said: "A stigma can be associated with a change in someone's circumstances such as mental health and the perceptions that society has. The role of the media can play an important part in portraying those suffering from mental health both positive and negative.
"There will be discussions about the perceptions of mental health and how a change in mental health is temporary.
"It is hoped that ideas generated from the discussions that ideas to combat stigma surrounding mental health issues can be generated."
The workshop will be led by John, the chairman of HUGS.
Entry is free with refreshments provided. A voluntary donation to cover costs would be welcome.
