Too many people's lives are made harder and shorter because of a mental health problem.
But it doesn't have to be this way. If the Government take concerted action, we can build a mentally healthier nation. centreformentalhealth.org.uk…

Thank you so much, @PaulaBarkerMP, for highlighting the critical importance of intermediate care for people facing homelessness. Along with specialist hospital teams, intermediate care after a hospital stay can end people's homelessness and provide a safe recovery for all.

Just delivered Compassionate Conversation training to our clinical team, in the context of delivering positive Hepatitis or HIV diagnoses. Training always fills my cup, and it's lovely to connect with colleagues I don't often see, such insightful reflections and keen engagement.

A quick heads-up to DWP wonks that a huge tranche of almost 30 research reports has been published today (presumably held back under the previous government?) covering Universal Credit, childcare, disability & pensions - lots of interesting stuff in there gov.uk/search/research-and-s…
Some of the most powerful, heart wrenching, and exciting conversations happening through the #WomensRoughSleepingCensus. Very hopeful for the future, led by lived experience. @SolaceWomensAid

Some interesting ideas in this thread & the paper about how we might reduce stigma around substance use, which should help keep people safer. As with so many interventions (notably on prevention) being well-intentioned isn't good enough; there can often be unintended consequences
