If you're missing the World Cup, we present these scenes from Ireland 🏆
Mayo, after 75 years of hurt, a curse and 11 consecutive defeats in the final, are All-Ireland (Gaelic) football champions. Look what it means. This is why we love sports ❤️🔥
Why do I love sport? Listen to this. What an amazing match, watched with my 12yo son who’s never watched a Gaelic football match ever and was shouting for Mayo by the end. Incredible.
A joy to hear @grealisStevie hitting the nuclear button!
As promised last night.
I believe some of this might even be English.
Thank you for the invite what a brilliant team. A hot, long day but the work towards Developing a trauma responsive inpatient service was inspiring!
Huge thanks to Kirsty and @gordonmilson for facilitating. A very impactful day 😊🙌 @LozShan @CheralynBeralyn @NurseKTasker @timmcdougall69 @SarahJLeah @PennineCareNHS @kelly_bowden
Fantastic work Sam - thank you!
On the Hope Unit this week Sam has ensured all the young people, carers and staff have stayed hydrated! We've had cucumber water, lollies, ice cream and fresh fruit! 🍉🍦☀️ @NurseKTasker @CheralynBeralyn @CharGoodallRMN @PennineCareNHS

Do you work with family members of autistic people or need personalised guidance for your own family?
We’re commissioned by the NHS to offer free coaching sessions through Autism Central, a safe space to reflect on autistic wellbeing: autismcentral.org.uk/one-one

At a time in young lives when so much is changing, why add another change to those under MH care?
We want to get beyond the usual point that the CAMHS/adult transition is problematic. Exactly why? What ⬆️ or ⬇️ risk?
🚨NEW @NCISH_UK STUDY🚨
NCISH has been commissioned to examine the transition process from CAMHS to AMHS, a high-risk period for patients. To better understand this: we are asking patients, carers and clinicians to share their experiences of mental health services via survey

Part of the case for a social media ban relates to suicide & self-harm rates. In fact, the evidence is at best circumstantial & shows
The SH ⬆️ in young people began well before social media took hold.
The ⬆️ in suicide in young teens is very recent. It remains mercifully rare.
What a festive bunch they are. 👏👏
The Hope Unit Winter Fair and Christmas Jumper Day! 🤶🏼☃️🎄

The last day of the PCFT CAMHS Psychological Therapies Training today and myself and HMR CAMHS Autism Lead delivered our session on ND Conditions.
Really engaging group and an absolute pleasure to be teaching CAMHS professionals to work with autistic cyp and cyp with LDs, ADHD.

At the eleventh hour, on the eleventh day, of the eleventh month – we will remember them
Today we remember #ArmisticeDayand those who fought in all wars and sacrificed so much for our freedom.
We hope you are able to join in 2 minutes of silent reflection at 11am #LestWeForget

Today is #RemembranceSunday, an opportunity to honour the courage and sacrifice of those who have served and who have sadly lost their lives in all wars.
Remembrance can bring back difficult feelings and emotions. Search Op COURAGE to find support if you’re struggling.
