Tonight’s episode of #EastEnders featuring Phil’s month at the mental health unit was a powerful one. Open this to read why seeing storylines like Phil’s are important.

It all starts with small talk. A simple 'Hey, are you alright?' can be all it takes to interrupt someone's suicidal thoughts. Join us in creating a community of small talkers! Let's move from bystanding, to standing by and offering support. 💬 #SmallTalkSavesLives

We’re proud to support @Samaritans #BrewMonday campaign ☕ You’ll see some teams across the network this morning helping to start conversations with a brew. People can feel low on any day of the year but connecting over a cuppa is a great way to check in with each other. 💚 bit.ly/3aaYyUD

The tea chart has spoken! Do you agree with your #BrewMonday drink or are you ready to kick off in the comments? 🤣 Honestly, we’re just trying to get your attention before Brew Monday tomorrow! It’s not really about the drink, it’s about making time for a catch up together. 💚
