Is it time to give the Island's carers more support? It's estimated carers save the Isle of Man's economy up to £90 million each year, but many carry out those roles unpaid and at the detriment of their own wellbeing. manxradio.com/news/isle-of-m…

It's important to remember people are often feeling vulnerable, nervous or worried when in a medical setting. First impressions and positive interactions are so important to putting someone at ease #hellomynameis @CMCaAlliance @CrossroadsIOM @WelshAmbulance

It’s #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek and this year the focus is on loneliness. Caring can often make you feel isolated and like no one else understands. But you’re not alone. Find out about the support we offer 🧵👇
