In 2015, 6 out of 10 #homeless people were found to identify as #lonely-a figure likely to have only increased with the #pandemic. The free service offered by @Hair4HomelessUK can allow a homeless person to feel seen, experience #empathy and improve their #selfesteem. #MHAW2022

Loneliness is inextricably linked to poor mental health. Initiatives like @Hair4HomelessUK can help those stuck in a cycle of homelessness and substance abuse regain a sense of self-worth & value. #MHAW #loneliness #homelessness #KindnessMatters #MentalHealthMatters

.@theCALMzone stand up to the stereotypes that prevent those at risk of suicide from reaching out. We're Shouting Out their life-saving services, push for collective action, and innovative campaigns that normalise #mentalhealth issues and provoke #action to overcome them.

During Covid-19 lockdowns @theCALMzone's helpline saw a 36% increase in demand. Last week’s #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek saw @theCALMzone push for #ACTION to ensure people prioritise their mental health. This is a charity pushing boundaries to ensure that no-one is left behind.

Have a read of our blog on how other organisations are breaking the stigma surrounding mental health, campaigning for better support services, and working together to signpost those struggling to help: wayforwardbrighton.com/blog/… #MHAW2022 #MentalHealth #breakthestigma #COVID19

With #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek coming up we're shouting out @ChasingStigma charity, who are leading the way for better signposting - to over 3,000 mental health support services through their #HubofHope - and increasing public understanding with Ambassador of Hope training.

We are shouting out @SolaceWomensAid during #NoMoreWeek to recognise their commitment to supporting and empowering victims of gender-based violence, and undertaking crucial prevention work - a mission that has become even more urgent in the pandemic. #InternationalWomensDay2022

I couldn’t be more prouder! What an absolutely incredible day. The British Sign Language (BSL) Bill passed the second reading. Save the date - 18th March 2022 same place, for the 3rd reading before it becomes law. Thank you to everyone who gathered today #DeafUnity #BSLActNow

@RoseAylingEllis, #StrictlyComeDancing's first #Deaf contestant & finalist, is an amazing role model for the Deaf community. As well as proving that Deaf people can achieve anything, she has inspired a surge in sign-ups to #BSL lessons by the public and has our full support!
