The Walls Between Us is such a powerful, emotional and engaging piece, written and acted brilliantly, and it's been a real pleasure to see a couple of performances this week, and for Fatema and Jazz to be asked to be part of the Q&A panel at The Rep on Wed evening @sampad_arts
Another wonderfully acted, #moving, #funny, #emotional, performance last night of #TheWallsBetweenUs Thanks to after show panel host Ashok Patel, Dr Sadira Teeluckdharry @bsmhft, writer of the play @farrahchaudhry, cast & BSL Interpreter Harjit Jagdev. Show pics @danburwood

Imam talks passionately about educating pupils and children within the Muslim community, as the foundation to supporting good mental health and having positive conversations about mental health and wellbeing. #mhaw2021 #muslimcommunity #education #bettermentalhealthforall

So this was a really interesting video to produce. Being in the studio listening to this was fascinating. Aqeel speaks so eloquently here and we were so grateful for his contribution and wise words πŸ’šβ˜€οΈπŸ’ͺπŸ½πŸ€— #MHAW2021
Having an open conversation with your family and friends about #MentalHealth can feel overwhelming and today we meet Imam who talks about how mental health is perceived within the Muslim community. youtu.be/VVK_COzCgOE

We wanted to make this video to highlight just how prevalent depression can be, and talk about the symptoms, and how you can manage through self-care, but also seek support when needed. Massive "thank you" to the wonderful Owen in our team for doing this πŸ’ͺπŸ½β˜€οΈπŸ’šπŸ€— #MHAW2021
Depression: We are all getting better at talking about it, but too many people are suffering with long term depression, and not asking for help. Time outdoors πŸƒis a great way to help manage those feelings of depression & remember there is help available youtu.be/FSqKUhdY1Uk
