Dubai, UAE – Silicon Central Mall, Dubai’s premier shopping and lifestyle destination, has unveiled a comprehensive mental health awareness campaign as part of its corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives. This pioneering effort aims to promote mental wellbeing, reduce the stigma surrounding mental illnesses, and foster a supportive community environment.

As the first mall in the UAE to introduce such an initiative, Silicon Central Mall is leading the charge in advocating for mental health. By focusing on mental wellbeing, the mall seeks to enhance individual morale and productivity while making a positive impact on the community. Educating the public about mental health issues can reduce stigma, encourage open conversations, and create an environment where individuals feel comfortable seeking help.

“Promoting mental awareness is crucial for a person’s wellbeing, which in turn boosts their morale and productivity. This campaign provides the necessary resources, support, and education to lead to healthier communities. We are dedicated to making a lasting impact through our CSR initiatives,” said Shirazul Khan, Manager of Silicon Central Mall.

As part of the campaign, Silicon Central Mall has partnered with renowned mental health advocates, including Fakeeh University Hospital and Life Medical Centre. These partnerships bring expert guidance and support to the campaign’s activities, which include:

  • Educational Workshops and Seminars: Providing valuable information and insights on various mental health topics.
  • Awareness Campaigns: Spreading awareness about mental health issues through various channels.
  • Support Groups and Counselling: Offering support and counselling sessions for those in need.
  • Physical Fitness and Wellness Programs: Promoting overall wellbeing through fitness and wellness activities.

In a significant addition to these efforts, Silicon Central Mall is introducing Openminds, a psychiatric, counselling, and neuroscience centre located within the mall. This new facility ensures that customers have easy access to professional mental health services in a convenient and accessible location.

“We are proud to be the first mall to initiate this type of CSR initiative. Our goal is to create a supportive community that prioritizes mental health and wellbeing,” added Shirazul Khan.

Silicon Central Mall invites everyone to participate in the ongoing activities and support the mental health awareness campaign, contributing to a healthier and more informed community.
