This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeekk, we reject tokenistic awareness campaigns and call for structural change to the conditions that drive distress. We deserve more than to be tolerated, we deserve to thrive. Our WMHD blog remains more relevant than ever. nsun.org.uk/when-world-menta…

When World Mental Health Day is over, we will still be Mad

Each year, NSUN and its members witness the fleeting spark of attention which awareness days attract quickly fizzle back into inaction.

Some Muslim prisoners who are fasting have been offered bacon sandwiches for iftar. Subhanallah. They can't access the Qur'an or prayer mats. But the grants you send them can help remedy it. Please donate to our Crowdfunder - all the money goes to them crowdfunder.co.uk/p/nejma-ra…
