#NetflixAndChill is helmed by @ActLukeAdamson, returning to @draytonarmsSW5 where he had a hit with Yorkshire-set #BeinEarnest.
'As someone who's battled with my #mentalhealth, I wanted to be at the forefront of the conversation,' he says 👉 mytheatremates.com/netflix-c… #NandC20 #ad – at London, England

SNEAK PEEK! You have just over a week to get your tickets to see @kate_landy and the rest of our stunning cast at the @HopeMilltheatr1 in this new musical about #MentalHealthAwareness. hopemilltheatre.co.uk/events…
Another fab idea by @ScarlettMaltman and @cathyreadUK - a lovely way to put a positive spin on the incredibly difficult issue of mental health in the arts 🌥
We have some news...
To celebrate 1 year this is what we have decided to do. To ensure we constantly recognise, grow, build and support one another & mental health in the arts.
Voting is now open via link in bio!
Thank you @GivernyMasso @TheStage ❤️
theguardian.com/film/2019/ap… The pressure to maintain a certain body type can put huge strain on a performer’s mental health, no matter their gender. It’s great to see conversations like this happening!
Another group of performers in training better equipped to deal with the challenges of the arts industry thanks to @sophielinderlee workshop and YOUR support 🙌

This kind of recruitment practice is so completely unnecessary! Making auditionees’ lives harder for NO valid reason is incredibly irresponsible in terms of potential impact on their welfare.

This week’s TALK meet up is tomorrow (19 March), 5.30-6.30pm, at @theActorsCentre. Come join in the conversation. Discussing all things to do with the industry. #support
Hugely fitting on #InternationalWomansDay to say a massive well done to the amazing @ScarlettMaltman and @cathyreadUK for their #IndustryMindsLive event last night!
We have very happy hearts.
We would like to thank everyone who came to support us tonight, to our amazing panelists, to everyone who donated goodies for our bags, to @madedotcom for hosting us, @aimeelouisebarrett for giving us this opportunity with @bumble
#INDUSTRYMINDSLIVE
An uplifting story of those within the theatre listening, caring and supporting each other. A reminder for us all to take the time to do the same if we can. #WomenOfWaitress

A teacher at drama school told me I was an absolute bitch and that no-one would ever hire me- at 19yo it almost broke me. About 8 years later after I'd become a Musical Director, I auditioned him for a show. He almost shat his pants when he saw me behind the table. Be nice, kids.

Highlight of my career so far;
A woman and her husband on the tube platform recognise me from the show and so she steps forward and her husband steps back and ‘slyly’ takes a photo of her with me in the background.
I USED TO BE THAT GUY AND NOW IM THAT GUY.
Life, made.
⬇️⬇️⬇️ Here’s one of our fabulous founders!⬇️⬇️⬇️
"I founded @performerinmind - a platform campaigning and fundraising for better mental health support for performing artists.. The launch event I organised with performers and speakers from the arts industry raised over £1000!" @jessiemaywrites
We hope that mental health support can be implemented at all stages of a performer’s career, and it’s especially important to start early!
Does this look familiar?
Mental health must be a priority in our schools. Now is your chance to #TellOfsted to make it one.

Just found this resource for therapy/counselling for around £5-£25 per session and aimed for lower incomes (mostly London based) - really amazing list for anyone in need
