The City and Hackney Wellbeing Network will be offering free massages and yoga sessions – as well as pizza – in an effort to promote better health and wellbeing.

The “Take a Pause” event will take place on Wednesday at the Dalston Eastern Curve Garden, in Dalston Lane, from 6pm to 8.30pm.

The free evening will offer a bar for food and drinks on top of the chance to learn about the scientific benefits of mindfulness.

Take a Pause has been organised for Mental Health Awareness Week which runs all next week.
