Of the people we’ve helped 96% said the support positively affected their mental health.
Please tell your nursing and midwifery colleagues about the support we can offer.

Millions of children have been forced to leave their schools and education behind as they flee #Ukraine, their futures have been put on hold.
These Ukrainian children and teachers share their experiences of education during the conflict. bit.ly/3svOIb5
Went for my mammogram today, the lady stood with me spoke about her husbands heart condition and brain tumour, all sucessfully treated by the NHS, and how grateful she was for the service today, so am I. Fight for it, it really is amazing

Around the world, girls are facing extra challenges to getting an education.
Many girls never get the chance to go to school, or to finish their early grades, and even for girls in school, their education can be precarious. globalcitizen.org/en/content…

We agree with this 100% and can’t believe the Government want to start charging NHS staff again.
Please RT if you agree too.
Amazing work, not just a project, embedded in practice and making a difference
Amazing start to #AutismAcceptanceWeek hearing from #ActuallyAutistic patients sharing their stories with others! Tomorrow we’ll continue the fun with @Autism activities - 60 pictures about autism & a 60 second sensory movement circuit challenge! @high_secure_ld @NottsHealthcare

To help deal with stress, try talking to someone. This could be a loved one, friend or healthcare professional. 💙

A wee poetic dabble, prepared to educate any dissenters, detractors, or naysayers. In my good old Yorkshire slang, "Learning Disability Nursing is reyt proper". @teamCNO_ @Crouchendtiger7 @WeLDnurses @CNOEngland @TheRealSprigger @DebDMA @ldnursedave @helen_laverty @ElliePhonstan
