Prevention workers from the Westhoek and Midwest regions are organizing a 'Proverb attack,' applying positive, heartwarming texts to windows as part of the 'Samen Veerkrachtig' campaign.

The 'Samen Veerkrachtig' campaign, running throughout October, focuses on mental resilience. The 'Proverb attack' is an initiative by Gezondheidsmakers vzw in collaboration with intermunicipal prevention workers. These workers are hitting the streets to apply short, uplifting texts on windows.
This year's central theme is 'Being well-surrounded,' emphasizing the importance of a strong social network for mental health. The messages invite passers-by to reflect on their own well-being and that of others, making the theme accessible.
The window texts add a visible, positive touch to the streetscape, reminding us of the value of connection and a listening ear.
