Today is often called “Blue Monday”, but it's also a chance to check in on your wellbeing. If you’re balancing OU study with work, family or other pressures, you don’t have to cope alone. OU student support: northern-ireland@open.ac.uk open.ac.uk/contact/ Support in NI via @AwareNI: aware-ni.org/lets-talk Talking helps. Support is there.

It's #GlobalAFAwarenessWeek. AF or Atrial Fibrillation is one of the most common heart rhythm disorders and can increase your risk of stroke, but many people don’t realise they have it. If you notice any symptoms, speak to your GP ASAP

Common #MentalHealth problems such as anxiety, stress, low mood and depression can affect anyone. While these feelings can be a natural response to life’s challenges, they can become more serious if we don’t do something to help improve our mental health. #Living Well
